God Will Accept You
We think God can’t accept us, after what we have done or our past or the burden we carry. We may think we are too far gone. We might think we are too scarred. We think we have to gain God’s love and approval. We think God can’t forgive us for what we have done. We see…
God Waits on Us
God waits, He is patient with us. He patiently works in us, renewing us and making us more like Him. He is patient all along our journey with Him. His love for us allows Him to be patient and wait for us at times as we go through life. Psalms 103:8 The LORD is compassionate…
