Thanks for the amazing reminder from Kim! “But godliness with contentment is GREAT GAIN. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.” 1 Timothy 6: 6-7   Contentment! What a beautiful word! We all strive to be content, satisfied, and just at peace with what we already have or what we are going through!!!     These verses remind us “we brought nothing into this world and we can take nothing out of it.” Everything good we have is a gift from above!   Only Christ Himself can FILL the deep void we all have within us!…

They set Dagon back up, and then the next time they checked Dagon had fallen once again and broken. They decided, since they didn’t want to lose their own idol, to get rid of the Ark of God… (see 1 Sam 5.7). It is…

Thank You for joining me today! Enjoy His Truth! “For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business.” James 1: 11 What is important in this life? Beauty? Riches? Our jobs? Status? Our homes? Cars? Boats?
