August #jammed: Reflecting on Grace. Day 241: Trouble comes in waves. “Troublemakers have arisen among you and have led the people of their town astray.” Deuteronomy 13:13 NIV Like hard times come in seasons, trouble comes in waves.

Hebrews 11:32 NLT We live in an age where we can find just about anything we can […]
August #jammed: Reflecting on Grace. Day 235: Seasons of sickness. “You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.” Matthew 17:20 The first time I […]
