Psalm 107: From Foolishness
17 Some were fools; they rebelled and suffered for their sins. 18 They couldn’t stand the thought of food, and they were knocking on death’s door. 19 “Lord, help!” they cried in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. 20 He sent out his word and healed them, snatching them from the door…

Psalm 107: From Darkness
10 Some sat in darkness and deepest gloom, imprisoned in iron chains of misery. 11 They rebelled against the words of God, scorning the counsel of the Most High. 12 That is why he broke them with hard labor; they fell, and no one was there to help them. 13 “Lord, help!” they cried in…

He Has Spoken
I declare the end from the beginning, and from long ago what is not yet done, saying: my plan will take place, and I will do all my will. I call a bird of prey from the east, a man for my purpose from a far country. Yes, I have spoken; so I will also bring…

He is the Way
Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6 I have a confession: I married a Star Wars fan. That may not seem like much of a confession to some, but if you know, you know. All the movies, all the shows, all the…
