GOD REMEMBERS!
My friend and I were speaking each to the other about this thing of “old age and its accompaniment”. We agreed on a number of “episodes” but we also agreed we could not remember some of the details of others for which we “purposefully” had placed in the cupboard of forgetfulness. Because of our differenceContinue reading “GOD REMEMBERS!”
WHERE RIGHTEOUSNESS DWELLS

Here, in Psalm 56 you find him dragging bottom in recalling all the low, the depressing things, which has happened to Israel. In fact, he reaches the point where he has to describe thoseContinue reading “TEARS IN A BOTTLE”
A PROMISE OF POWER
“And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever – the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.” John 14:16-17 In John 14, Jesus madeContinue reading “A PROMISE OF POWER”
