Saul/Paul

One cannot learn the journey of the Christian faith, without at some point learning of Paul. He had no idea of the life God was preparing for him to live. For a time (when he was known as Saul,) the followers of Christ were important to him. He was not seeking ways to help them,… Continue reading Saul/Paul

Looking Up

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek first those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

One may ask a friend or family member what they have been up to, only to receive the reply of, “oh, nothing,” or “nothing much.” Merriam-Webster defines the definition of nothing as, “a: something that does not exist, b: the absence of all magnitude and quality,… Continue reading Nothing

Shall We Begin?

Thank you so much for taking the time to read these words. Please know that they are intended as much for myself as well as for you. Jesus loves you. Yes, you! He died for you; in fact he died for all of us, so that we could one day be with him in heaven.… Continue reading Shall We Begin?
