All Sufficient

Until Jesus is enough, no person, place, or thing will ever be. Slow down to reflect.  Lord, am I still anchored in You or have I drifted? Being stilled in that quiet, God reminds us of something simple but pretty deep. His fixed, unchanged truth is rock solid. But all of us on occasion look…

Redemption’s Kiss

I will listen to what God the Lord says; He promises peace to His people, His faithful servants— but let them not turn to folly.
