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.

Beyond the Visible
Jesus’ words in Matthew 24 are not just warnings about the distant future; they’re instructions for daily living.

“Do What He Tells You”
Jesus’s first miracle, turning the water into wine, is a quiet miracle. He didn’t do it in the midst of crowds or in the temple. Even the master of the house didn’t realize what was going on. We know that his mother was there and some servants who, because they listened and did what He …

I am a ‘word’ guy and I found myself intrigued the other day while reading a devotional from ‘Unveiling Mercy’. I was intrigued because the term ‘homograph’ came up.
