After Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden, we were separated from God and had no way to reach Him on a personal level until Jesus died on the cross. He bridged that great gap and made it possible for us to have a personal relationship with the Living God once more.

The church has always played an active part in my life. Sunday has always been and still is a special day that is reserved for going to the House of God. When I do miss, I feel like my whole week is thrown off and I start it all wrong.

There are some people who are able to break away from the “norm” and do things that others only dream of doing. Most of us want to find a zone that is very comfortable, though, and stay there. We don’t want to stand out from the crowd too much because people will think we are [...]

Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
