Romans 8:1-17 Life at birth is like a glass that is empty. Then we begin to fill the glass of life with many things. The infant begins to learn that life has pain. The pain may come from some food that the infant has been fed. The stomach ache will cause the baby to cry with pain. My oldest brother had a daughter who cried for the first nine or ten months of life because of stomach pains. Her parents…..
Romans 7:14-25 The battle between good and evil is as old as the human family. In the creation of the human life God put within us His Spirit. That God-given gift enables us to discern the difference between good and evil. At what age did you become aware of the difference? God also created us with free will that enables us to make choices with our God-given gifts. In Genesis we read about Cain and his struggle with anger. Cain…..
Romans 3:1-8 What is our anchor in an ever-changing world for a Christian? Most everyone is familiar with the concept of an anchor in the nautical sense.

Matthew 28:16-20 We have experienced all types of invasions, such as the electronic devices in our homes. I have been fighting a bad infestation of the wisteria vine at the edge of my yard. This vine invades in a hurry. On June 6, 1944 Operation Overlord, also known as D Day, marked the start of the Battle of Normandy. The battle lasted from June of 1944 to August, 1944.

John 21: 15-19 God’s broken family’s greatest need is to experience the power of God’s love. We live with our fears, hurts and sorrow – because of our spiritual vacuum, we more than flesh and bone. Many of us have never trusted God’s plan for our lives. We do not accept God’s plan for us, so life can be what God wanted life to be for us. John 3:16-17 tells us why and what God’s love can do…..
John 18:1-11 John 19:13-30 What is the message of us Christians? We just don’t know anymore. In this broken world we lost the message of Jesus and his cross. Let our message focus again on the cross.

You pay a small amount over that period of time until Christmas or you can save the amount of the charges and pay it off when you go…..
Isaiah 53:1-12 and 55:1-13 God created us with his own DNA to be his family that would live in fellowship with their creator. He created us with the capacity to think and understand the gift of life that God alone gave us. Because we are able to think we can make decisions with our free will. We decided that we wanted to be equal to God and take over God’s perfect garden. Out of God’s love for us he called…..

When God gave us the power to think and make decisions, we made the choice to use our free will and pull a…..
