Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety. Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and… Read more »
My Job To Love
Dr. Billy Graham said it best, “It’s the Holy Spirit’s job to convict. God’s job to judge. And my job to love.” “O Lord, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying… Read more »

A Leaning Friday
‘When I can’t stand, I have to lean. And when I can’t see I must believe.’ Decades of incredible lyrics from the late Kyla Rowland that bless my life–maybe yours as well. A ‘leaning’ Friday @ West Court. ‘He is the Fountain for a thirsty soul He is the Healer and so much more. When… Read more »

A favorite Gaither lyric below – ‘ There’s a way you can know that where ever you’ve been, you can make it HOME and be forgiven again.’ Amen. And Amen. Have a good night’s rest everyone. ‘The… Read more »
