Building Our Lives on the Foundation of God’s Word
If we want to thrive, we should build our lives on a strong foundation. When it comes to foundation, I believe that the best foundation is the Word of God. We should build our lives on God’s Word. We should base everything we do on it.
Pressing On to Know the Lord
Today I’d like to share something with you from Hosea 6:3:
Let us know; let us press on to know the LORD; His going out is sure as the dawn; He will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth.”
Making the Best Use of the Time
Here we are now in the last quarter of this year. 2020 is just three months away. Time flies, doesn’t it? It reminds me of this verse in the Bible:

How to Have True Joy
There is one thing that should mark our lives. There is one thing that you and I should always have. That one thing is joy.
