Emotionally mature people expect trouble and difficulties and are willing to work their way through them with God’s help. The truth is that life is a series of ups and downs, good and bad, sweet and sour and those who survive learn to take each day at a time,…

Whatever is not from the above cannot be above all and doing things without God’s perception is a sin. Today the…

Believers as Light (1) By Babatunde Olugboji  In Matthew 5:13 – 16 Jesus addressed His disciples thus: “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness; how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world.
