We deserve Hell!

Job 11:6 And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.

Blaming God

Job 1:22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly. Everything that can go wrong has! Life is literally falling apart for Job. He has no idea why. For that reason this verse means a lot to me. When things go wrong we tend to blame God. We need someone to blame. We [...]

Esther 1:20 And when the king’s decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small. This verse is an indictment to the men of that day and even of today. These men wanted to [...]

Update on the Tolson Family

Passionate about Jesus If there is one thing that all of us know about the Tolson Family, it is that they are passionate about Jesus. This has never been more evident than it is now! In John 15:5, it says “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I [...]

Asking God for direction

Ezra 8:21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance. Ezra stops everything to seek God and find out how God wants them to live [...]
