A Wake Up Call Like No Other

“But God Said …”

“The words of the Lord are pure words, Like silver tried in a furnace of earth, Purified seven times.  You shall keep them, O Lord, You shall preserve them from this generation forever.  The wicked prowl on every side, when vileness is exalted among the sons of men.” (Psalm 12:6-8, NKJV) The thought of unearthing […]

“But You Promised …”

“For all the promises of God find their Yes in Him.  That is why it is through Him that we utter our Amen to God for His glory.” (2 Corinthians 1:20, ESV) It happens more than any parent would care to admit.  We make the mistake of promising our kids more than we can deliver. […]
