It’s Not Just a Little Black Dot
Have you ever had a shirt that is the most perfect white and has the most flattering fit, and then all of a sudden you find a little black dot right in the front. “Oh! That is so frustrating!” But it has happened to all of us, usually at the worst time, like right before…

Resist
Matthew 4 is THE example of how to resist the devil. Who was this example? Jesus Christ himself is our prime example. We need to remember that we are mere humans and cannot resist the temptation of the Devil on our own, but with the help of Jesus we can resist him. Look up these…

Kindness and a Smile.
Have you ever heard that a “Smile” can go a long way? I know that personally when someone smiles at me, it puts a little skip in my step. I may not know them, but still, it is a wonderful feeling to see joy on someone elses face and them sharing that with me. But…

It may not even happen.
The majority of what we are afraid of … never happens. If you are anything like me, you think way to much about what could happen rather than focus on what is going on right now. We get ourselves so worked up about the “What ifs” that we become afraid of our own shadows. The…

Because we need it.
James 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. Why does God give us more Grace?… because we need it. So many times in our lives we stumble and fail in our Christian walk, but we have a wonderful God that forgives us (giving…

Not meant to do it alone.
