In the midst of my children’s pain, let them find someone whom is hurting and offer them help and hope. In doing so they will please God and possibly save a life!  Luke 23:39-43, Acts 7:59-60

Faith enables my children to receive what God has already done. He has already made my children healthy, wealthy and wise … but they must believe it to receive it. May my children remain patience and steadfast in their faith as they mature in Christ and transform their lives and their destiny through obedience to…
