Why Do You Love God?

Sharing An Insight – Lesson 10
When we listen to Handel’s Messiah, the music builds and the story unfolds. The mood of the music enhances the sequence of events which move from Isaiah’s prophecies about the coming Messiah through His crucifixion and death and culminating finally in His triumphant resurrection. “I Know That My Redeemer Liveth” is a part of a finale that…… Continue Reading
Sharing an Insight – Lesson 9
It is such a great combination. My God is both willing and able. The one characteristic without the other wouldn’t be enough. HE is ABLE to build me up -Acts. 20: 32. HE is ABLE to do everything that He has promised – Romas 4: 21. HE is ABLE to provide all that I need –…… Continue Reading

Most of the adults in her life tried to comfort her by telling her that the kitten was now in heaven. Instead her grandmother tenderly…… Continue Reading
Sharing an Insight – Lesson 4
Here is a question that I have pondering this week as I have thought about God as MY Deliverer. “Is God more interested in changing my circumstances or would He be more desirous of changing me through or in these circumstances?” One would mean that He would deliver me from them (change them or take them away) and the other…… Continue Reading
Sharing An Insight – Lesson 3
One of the great desires of my heart is that my children and grandchildren will choose to follow the Lord throughout all the days of their lives. So when I find instruction and promises in Scripture that I need to follow and to believe, I draw 2 little stick figures beside that verse. Today as…… Continue Reading
