Rise! Let us go!
Have you ever felt the weight of despair? That sense that something is beyond repair can make us give up and whisper, “It’s over—why even try anymore?” We often slip into discouragement or depression because of missed opportunities or choices we wish we could undo.

A May Day Devotion
“… and the woman came and knelt before Him. ‘Lord, help me!’”— Matthew 15:25 As we enter the month of May, my thoughts turned to the international distress signal: “Mayday, Mayday, Mayday!” Repeated three times, this urgent cry for help is rooted in the French word m’aidez which means, “help me.” In Matthew 15, many …

What now?
The clamor is great as we move into the New Year. The Covid 19 Pandemic is running rampant even as vaccines are being distributed, and the unrest in our society is almost at match point. What can we do? There is a little verse in II Chronicles 20:12 “We do not know what to do, …
