Becoming a Valentine
Dear Becoming a Valentine, I know that this is probably your biggest dream right now. I get it. I was there too.

Look in the mirror.
When you are at church listening to the sermon on Sunday mornings, do you ever think, “Oh, So-and-so really needed to hear that”? Or, when you go out and hear something about a so-and-so from church, you agree with it without knowing the actual facts of the situation. Well, that is not the way we…

Psalm 119 – Zain
As you read Psalm 119: 49-56 think of it as a personal prayer. His promises that give us hope, comfort and strength to face troubles from the world around us. We will face people who will mock and try to get us to turn away from what God has said is right and true. Hebrews…
