New Kind of Brave

“When I am afraid, I put my trust in You.” Psalm 56:3 Have you ever heard of “word prompt”? It is where you have a certain word for the new year. I have never done it nor even tried. Tonight, as I was browsing online, I saw a post about it. And I clicked on…

Christmas I Remember

“For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger….. Growing up, I remember our Christmases were not festive and elaborate. We didn’t get a tree,…
