The Beatitudes are a beautiful piece of Scripture that many just take in a literal sense, but they are so much more than that “Beatus” is translated as ”blessed” in Latin…we are blessed because we have found Jesus The Beatitudes will, at least, challenge…
My heart breaks when I think about the parable of the Ten Virgins, in the Gospel of Matthew. It’s sad to think that some Christian’s believe they have enough “oil” to see them through until Jesus returns, but in reality, some of us rarely…
Are we tearing other people down in order to make ourselves look, or feel better? Jesus warned that instead of being critical about others and judging them against our own moral code, let God be the judge in His perfect timing. Because, we may…
Personally, I think, our eyes are one of the most beautiful and captivating parts of the body. It is said that they are the gateway to our soul and I don’t think our eyes can hide our emotions or feelings. As Christian’s, we have…
