Jesus healed those who were brought to Him. I love picturing the scene! Having been healed of six chronic illnesses in “one fell swoop,” I can imagine how ecstatic the infirm were to be set free. I love how the witnesses to these miracles glorified God. This is what Jesus…

I remember coming home from school upset about the way a fellow student had spoken to me. I also remember Mom telling me that what comes out of a person says a lot about how they are on the inside; someone who is so unkind must be very unhappy. As…

Fear comes when I look at the world instead of keeping my eyes on the One who has overcome the world. Turn your eyes upon Jesus; look full in His wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.
