Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise. Ephesians 5:15 Do you ever wonder how others perceive you?

Start As You Mean To Go On
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Joshua 24:15 The start of every year is always filled with good intentions. Resolutions are made, goals are set, plans are put in place.

We know, of course, that life is not simple and circumstances can… Continue reading Choose to be led
