Welcome to Our Family!

  • Just in Time

    Just in time God does not keep time as we do. He always existed and has no end. Jesus said in Revelation 22:13 (KJV) “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.” Our Distractions vs His Peace Let’s face it. A large majority of our lives will have…

  • Don’t Stop Praying

    Don’t Stop Praying What is prayer? A Google search reveals that “in Christianity, prayer is a way for people to communicate with God, and is considered central to the Christian life. It can be a two-way conversation where people both speak to and listen to God, and can be spoken, silent, or sung.” PHILIPPIANS 4:6-7 KJV “Do…

  • Forgiveness

    Forgiveness There is healing and freedom when we choose to forgive one another.

  • Eggceptional Peace

    Eggceptional Peace Yes, as my online spellcheck is telling me, the correct spelling is Exceptional Peace. I purposely spelled it “egg” because of inspired thoughts from the Holy Spirit while I was peeling hard-boiled eggs for my daughter’s breakfast. Normally, I like to purchase already boiled and peeled eggs from the grocery store. This is…

  • Forgiveness

    Forgiveness “When the soldiers came to the place called “The Skull,” they nailed Jesus to a cross. They also nailed the two criminals to crosses, one on each side of Jesus. Jesus said, ‘Father, forgive these people! They don’t know what they’re doing.’ While the crowd stood there watching Jesus, the soldiers gambled for his…
