I believe that one of Satan’s greatest weapons against us is his lies and deceptions.

Forever With Us
While we live on the face of this earth, we will have troubles, hardships and trials. As followers of Jesus Christ, we have an arch enemy in Satan, who is out to destroy the church. So, we should expect that we will be hated, persecuted, despised and rejected of humankind. Although Satan is our real … Continue reading Forever With Us
For the One I Love
I was inspired by the passage I read for my quiet time from Isaiah 5, which begins by Isaiah saying, "I will sing for the one I love a song about his vineyard…" I sensed the Lord had a song for me based off of that song, only about Jesus Christ and what he did … Continue reading For the One I Love
