How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Psalms 119:103 KJV It’s said that “apple cider vinegar” has many good health benefits. Everyday, I make a special little drink that includes two tablespoons of ACV. On it’s own, it’s really tough for me swallow vinegar, but with my little recipe it turns into a much easier-to-swallow treat. Every so often (In fact, it just happened moments ago) I forget to add in my two teaspoons of Stevia to sweeten the taste of the vinegar in my drink. It’s a shocking surprise when I swallow it. It’s certainly still good for me… but all…

Are You Making this Huge Mistake? (Devotional)
The Sadducees presented Jesus with a perplexing question… If a man had no children and then died, leaving his brother to take her to wife — the second and third brother also took her to wife and died – with ALL seven brothers having been married to this woman, which one would she be married to in the resurrection? (Matthew 22:23-29) Jesus didn’t respond with a generous explanation to appease their curiosity, He called them out! He responded directly to them that they were in error. There were two basic reasons why they asked such a ridiculous question: They didn’t know the Scriptures. They didn’t know the power of God.…

Choose Happy
Guest post by Kathy McCullough, Pastor’s Wife in Arkansas City, Kansas One of the first things I do when I get up in the morning is open my curtains; except for the summer when it is especially hot.

As soon as the sun shifts, those curtains are opened! When I do open my curtains, I often will think or say, “I am going to let the ‘Happy Light’ in.” A bright room makes me think of cheerfulness.…

How to Do Everything the Right Way
Ah… it’s morning. A fresh, new day. Time to arrange the bed sheets in an nice, orderly fashion. Some mornings the results impress me, other days not so much. The bathroom is my favorite place to head first thing in the morning. There’s something undesirable splattered around the base of the toilet. Let me grab the cleaning spray and wipe up that mess. Next, I head toward the kitchen sink… even though I pay diligence to washing my dishes, there’s always items that someone places in there after the dishwater has been tossed. I fill the sink with fresh dishwater and let the dishes soak a bit as I make…

Even When We Fail, God is Still Faithful
I fail. And to be more honest, I fail a LOT. There are times that I may say the wrong things or think the wrong things. There are times when I may not read my Bible or pray like I should. There are times when I make mistakes or perhaps fall into the temptation of sin. Today, I’m so thankful and grateful for the Lord’s mercy and compassion which does NOT FAIL. Each day (TODAY), is a new beginning… God’s mercies are new for you and I today. I know it’s true because God’s Word says “his compassions fail not.” It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not…
