God loves to find His children yearning after Him and seeking His presence. Please find encouragement here to embrace that quest.
God has a secret treasure prepared for when we grow weary from all that life throws at us. That present is Himself. The pressure can get so great that we lose the will even to carry on. That is when some of us turn to the Lord. If we go only to complain and beg... Continue Reading →
Many pressing matters tear our attention away from God each day. They are important things that we must attend to, like family, work, and caring for others.
