Happy New Year! Let us all reflect on what the Lord did for us in 2022. Whether big or not so big, I’m thankful for my salvation. It’s a reminder once again that we have no control over anything or anyone. I have enough trouble controlling me. That’s probably the best thing I can do

We Are Blessed To Be a Blessing
“You rulers make decisions based on bribes; you priests teach God’s laws only for a price; you prophets won’t prophesy unless you are paid. Yet all of you claim to depend on the Lord. ‘No harm can come to us,’ you say, ‘for the Lord is here among us.’” Micah 3:11 (NLT) Sometimes people have
