“Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for the gracious and compassionate and righteous man.” Psalms 112:4 Every believer must accept that there will be times when dark clouds of affliction will cover your path. At first GOD is such glorious reality to you and joy floods your life, but the clouds of despondency will soon appear.

And it is just as powerful today – godly love. God continues to spread His love over His children and it is the Christian’s privilege...

“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.” Proverbs 16:3 Planning is important in every area of life. You plan for the future, for your marriage, for your finance and for retirement. Much of our time and energy goes into planning. There is a way to make planning better, however, but it requires strict spiritual discipline to make it effective and it must be undertaken with sincerity and honestly. It also requires solid faith and trust in God and in His promises. Whatever your concern may be, lay it before God in prayer with all your...
