We often put value on wealth, education, and reputation. A lot of times we put our self-esteem on how we look; what we have; or how popular we are. This is great for marketing things, but it doesn’t align with how God views things. In Proverbs 3:26 (ESV) for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught. When we put our confidence in God and seek Him for guidance in life, we will find many good things. Wisdom -- in Proverbs 3:35 The wise inherit h

There is a lot of uncertainties in our world today. There are deep divisions within our nation, the Omicron variants are being discovered on a regular basis. There is death and destruction in wars around the globe. We live in turbulent times, and we can easily find ourselves worrying about what is happening. However, Jesus promises that we can live in peace and calmness. As Christians, when we fix our eyes and thoughts on Jesus, we can claim His perfect peace, and persevere.

Ephesians 2:13-14 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14 For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, God intends for us to experience peace in our lives.

There is so much uncertainty in the world today. We have face multiple variances of Covid, things like fuel and groceries are more expensive, and we are facing a lot of uncertainties. However, we can live with the Peace of God no matter what we face. On the night Jesus was betrayed, He said to his disciples, “My peace I give to you; not as the world gives to you do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled; neither let it be afraid.”

I was getting gas a few weeks ago after the price went up 20 cents a gallon from the day before. It just so happened a guy I knew was getting gas at the pump next to me. He was commenting how the price of everything was going up and to him it seemed like the world was going to hell in a hand basket. I got my gas and headed on my way but started thinking about what the guy said and what people are facing in the world today. People are facing all kind of troubles right now. We

Does it ever feel that the storms you’re going through are never going to end? Our perspective is much different than God’s perspective. We see our storms and trials and think that they are never going to change. God understands they are here for a season. God’s favor lasts a lifetime; our weeping may last a night; but rejoicing comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5 (NIV) 5 For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejo
