Help My Unbelief

It becomes a legitimate cry and question if we can move beyond the sometimes years of conditioning not to trust, not to believe, not to see with eyes of faith, into a realm where the scales of doubt are removed?

Mooch Pooch

This woman saw the parallel that Jesus was making between her and a mooch pooch, and instead of allowing pride or a wounded spirit get in her way, humbly chose to express her faith by using Jesus' reference to her benefit. But did you know that isn't the only reference to mooch pooches in the new testament?

The God Who Hears

Our God is a living, breathing God who walks beside us. Our God is a good, good Father.  Our God is the God who makes a way for us when there is no other way. Our God is not taken by surprise or disturbed by chaos. Our God is the God who IS.
