  • Trust God

    Jeremiah 17:7–8 (ESV) “Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose trust is the LORD.He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream,and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green,and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not…

  • The God on the Mountain is Still God in the Valley

    “On a good day, enjoy yourself; On a bad day, examine your conscience. God arranges for both kinds of days so that we won’t take anything for granted.” Ecclesiastes 7:14 (MSG) There is a song titled “God on the Mountain”. 1 “For the God on the mountain is still God in the valleyWhen things go…

Each day, we change our clothes, and vehicles need periodic oil changes. Babies need diaper changes throughout the day. There are…

  • What Did You Say?

  • Back to Normal

    We are officially in the midst of the “in-between” week of Christmas and New Year’s Day. Feeling a little sad because Christmas is over? What about the sights and sounds around you? I had dropped off a small gift to two of my fellow volunteers at our local senior center and was heading back to…

  • The Light of the World

    The Light of the World “The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined” Isaiah 9:2 KJV. On Tuesday, November 25, 2027, Kevin and I headed to Strasburg, PA, where he would soon settle in for…

  • A New Day

    A New Day “This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it”.  Psalm 118:24 (ESV) Did you wake up this morning? Thank God. Not everyone does. At the Essex House of God Church, during times of testimony, one of the blessings for which individuals are thankful is that…
