God loves to find His children yearning after Him and seeking His presence. Please find encouragement here to embrace that quest.
We get the choice, and we each use it to find a group without thinking of it. The word "some," used in the Bible, describes a whole group of people. More than just a number, it represents a type of person. We see from our text that quite a few turn to human technology. Others... Continue Reading →
Christianity today walks down a similar road as the religions of old. Where we once directed the gaze of our souls to Power and wonder above, we hone in on ourselves. We lose the essence of worship. We pray, sing, and listen, but only to our liking. Huddling closer to the herd, we convince ourselves... Continue Reading →
Consider the size of the universe. If we stop and think about it, who can get their head around how small and insignificant planet earth looks? Try to measure the distance and space out there. Our minds cannot capture it all. Wrapped in all that precision and order lies volumes of praise to our limitless... Continue Reading →
