Suffering and Injustice
One day God will judge all people for the injustices committed. But for now, God is patience with us and so the injustice on earth continues. Even though His judgment is delayed, it’s more certain than tomorrow’s sunrise.
Rose Petals and Posies
When we acknowledge God is in control (not us) it makes a difference in how we live...and in how we die.
All that Lasts
Everything you have is on loan. You can’t take any of it with you when you die. What matters most is what you pass on. When you make your life a gift to others, you’re investing in eternity. And that’s a great way to live.
Stop Procrastinating and Start Following Through
Though often overlooked in our comfortable society, laziness is a dangerous sin…with the potential to cripple us spiritually. Chuck Swindoll calls us to begin actively pursuing right living…rather than indulging in slothfulness.
Two are Better Than One
Sharing life is better than going it alone. Life is hard. Having a friend by your side can help you survive even the most troubling challenges.

Material gain will never satisfy your spiritual hunger. Neither will power, prestige, or success. If you pursue these things you may gain the world for time, but you could be forfeiting blessings in eternity.
The Lonely Whine of the Top Dog

One Plus One Equals Survival
If we take Solomon's counsel to heart, two are better than one, we learn how to survive lonely, desolate days.
