“God showed how much He loved us by sending His one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through Him.” 1 John 4:9 (NLT) Today I could just simply say… God loves you! And I would absolutely be correct. But I’d rather show you that He does. See, I […]

“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” (Matthew 22:37-39 NKJV) It’s all too much. I’m not sure I’ve ever felt this kind […]
