Filtered Faith
“What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are so careful to clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside you are filthy – full of greed and self-indulgence! You blind Pharisees!

Unrelenting Hunger

Often, unfortunately for those of us with Diabetes, our thoughts turn to sweets. For me I envision a warm, bubbling piece ofContinue reading “Unrelenting Hunger”
On What Are You Resting?
“After saying all these things, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, ‘Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son so He can give glory back to You. For You have given Him authority over everyone. He gives eternal life to each one You have given Him. And this is the way to have eternalContinue reading “On What Are You Resting?”
Exalting Jesus
“He (Jesus) has come from above and is greater than anyone else. We are of the earth, but He has come from heaven and is greater than anyone else. He testifies about what He has seen and heard, but how few believe what He tells them? Anyone who accepts His testimony can affirm that GodContinue reading “Exalting Jesus”
