Possibilities

We look at our life, health and circumstance and think to ourselves “how did I end up here?” We have the freedom, along the way to choose what we focus on. When we take our mind off the problem, and immerse our mind in God’s word, hope returns. “With God all things are possible. ”…

Super Hero Capacity

The truth is that we who believe in Jesus have His superhero capacity. “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in Me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.” John 14:12  Kids learn by watching and emulating adults.
