1 Peter 3:17 “For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.” We all strive to avoid suffering, but the Bible reminds us that not all suffering is created equal. While some suffer as a result of making poor decisions, Peter explains that there […]
Matthew 11:29-30 “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Psalm 84:6-7 As they pass through the valley of Baca, they make it a spring; the rain also covers it with pools. They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion.

2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
