The pearl of great price

David Morse, American missionary to India, became great friends there with the pearl-diver, Rambhau.

Rambhau enjoyed listening to the Word of God, but whenever the missionary tried to get Rambhau to accept ChristContinue reading “The pearl of great price”

We are born breaking the law.

We are born breaking the law of God from the very beginning. Romans 3:23 says “far all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” this means that we have all broken the law even before we understood fully that there was a law. There is one who has not broken the law,Continue reading “We are born breaking the law.”

Double rainbow

Coming home from an amazing three days with my wife at a marriage retreat, we were talking about all the things that stood out to us.

This is from a friend of ours whom God, once again, brought to light His Word before her eyes.

The breath of God

This year,2024, I want my prayer life to go to the next level. No, I need it to. Lately my prayer life is just going through the motions. There is little power and there are few tears shed.
