My grandmother will be 88 in 2 weeks. - I've been doing a lot of thought lately upon what influence one's environment has upon one's choices. I'm not saying for one instant that a negative environment is an EXCUSE for sinful choices. There is NO excuse for many of the choices I made when I was younger.

The deepest truths of God’s Word have often been taught by those humble individuals who have gone through the school of affliction. With very few exceptions, the most cheerful people I’ve met have been those ...
Matthew 7:7, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find” __________ French physicist, mathematician, and philosopher Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) said, "There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the Creator, made known through Jesus." I submit to you that Pascal knew what he was talking about. You see, he wasn’t simply referring to emptiness. He was speaking about a drawing - an ...
