Living with Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Would this hardship ever be removed? I desperately wanted God to intervene, to take away the cause of this pain.   It was the summer when our fourth child was in-between middle and high school. We were having a party at our home with lots of friends. Water tubing was taking place in the river behind…

Psalm 7. When Wrongfully Accused

Have you been wrongfully slandered or unfairly criticized? PSALM 7. We’ve all experienced the hurt from unfair criticism and attacks on our reputation. Slander leaves a mark even when disproven.

Psalm 5. Desperate for God’s Ear

Are you desperate for God’s ear?
