April 15, 2017 by Debbie 7 Comments

Such incredible, miraculous, life-changing words. “He is not here; he has risen, just as he said…” Matthew 28:6 His power could not be contained in a grave. His love could not be conquered by death.

March 13, 2017 by Debbie 12 Comments

He reminds us in His word that there is great gain when we face painful times, as difficult as it may be. And yet I’m ever so aware of this as well, it’s never easy to live through. Necessary?

February 14, 2017 by Debbie 5 Comments

So this is a month we hear a lot about love, and because of that, you can be assured the enemy will do all he can to twist the real meaning and try to steal your joy. He despises everything about real love, because real love starts with God.
