Thought of the Week

The letter I want to focus on this week is the letter “P” and the word I want to focus on is…wait for it…patience. When we think of the word patience, for some, it is a difficult word. It is a word that means we have to wait on something. A lot of people do […]

We continue this week looking at words we need to act on if we are going to grow closer to God. This week, the letter is “O” and the word I want to talk about is the word “obedience”. I guess if there is one thing we need to make sure we practice in our […]
