Where To Run...

      Sometimes life seems overwhelming. We are flooded with various crises that threaten to crush us. In our distress we cry out for help and deliverance! Where can we turn for refuge?
      Some put their hope in their own strength. Some trust in their money. Others are counting on government programs. Some drown their sorrows in drugs or alcohol. But all of these are inadequate. God is our only sure refuge!

Pride, Humility & Honor

The Bible says, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble." (James 4:6)  It is interesting to note that the proud also resist God. It is only the humble who will submit to God and receive his grace. The proud are interested in God's offer of heaven only on their own terms. The humble accept God's terms of unconditional surrender.

Those who are proud are riding for a fall.

Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God...
