It might seem as if wrong goes unchallenged and evil wins, but as Christians, we know better. We KNOW that Jesus is already victorious. We KNOW that God is mightier than any of His created beings. God the Father gives free will—He offers every soul the opportunity to walk in…

There is a plague of evil in this world. We see examples of heresy and degradation and immorality every day. But those who strive to remain in close fellowship with the Lord will not fall into the pit with the heretics and dishonorable men. As much as I wish we…

HYMN DAY! “Under His Wings” by William Cushing. (I’ll be humming this all day.) 1 Under His wings I am safely abiding. Tho’ the night deepens and tempests are wild, Still I can trust Him; I know He will keep me. He has redeemed me, and I am His child.…

Years ago, a robin built her nest on my bedroom windowsill. I took such delight in watching her care for the four babies that hatched from pale blue eggs. One afternoon a storm blew in with torrential winds and pounding rain. I feared the baby robins would be torn from…

King James phrases it, “…shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” The Lord Himself shields those who dwell with Him. When we commune with God, we are safe from Satan’s darts. The minions of hell cannot reach us when we are in God’s shadow. Yes, we’re still trapped in…
