God loves to find His children yearning after Him and seeking His presence. Please find encouragement here to embrace that quest.
We are guilty. Christians today have been tricked. We know that God works above our powers to understand. He does more than we see to bring us in the best possible direction in life.

People who turn their eyes to God and listen have a powerful story of our human race to contemplate. He has gone to great lengths to show us that more is happening in and around us than meets the eye. Our story is one of tragedy, suspense, and hope. The tragedy is that we once... Continue Reading →
It comes across a lot in Christian talk. We say look to God and then brush right by before any clarification or questions are needed.
