Advocate For Abundant Living
Acts 20:35 says, “I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Tis the season for gift giving and making merry, but is it always better to give? […]
It’s Thanksgiving in the U.S. today and as I know you’re probably spending time with your family I’ll keep this Thursday’s Thought short and sweet. I believe we’re all thankful for our family and friends, food to eat and forgiveness of sins. We’ve been sharing what we’re thankful for all week on the Facebook page. […]

My husband and I recently went to the theater and saw the new movie Gravity. We marveled at God’s earth, the views and graphics in the film were nothing short of amazing. I won’t spoil the film for anyone who hasn’t seen it yet but at one point the main character wants to give […]
Moses’ humility saved the Israelites from destruction, Esther’s courage saved the Jews from massacre, Abigail’s discretion saved her household from David’s wrath and Nehemiah’s leadership saved the returning Jews from desolation.
