Don’t Waste the Waiting
by Ministry Support on June 30th, 2026
"The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord." - Lamentations 3:25–26 Waiting rarely feels good. It stretches your patience, tests your faith, and can make you wonder if God has forgotten about you. But Scripture reminds us that the waiting season is not wasted. God is still working, even when nothing ...  Read More

Refreshment is Found
by Ministry Support on June 28th, 2026
"He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake." - Psalm 23:3 Life has a way of wearing you down. Even when you love what you do, the pace, the pressure, and the problems can leave your heart drained. There are days when your body keeps going, but your soul feels tired. That is when the Shepherd steps in. David wrote, “He restores my soul,” because he knew that onl...  Read More

Finding Perspective in God’s Presence
by Ministry Support on June 23rd, 2026
"Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then I discerned their end." - Psalm 73:17 When life feels unfair, perspective can slip away quickly. You start comparing your story to someone else’s, wondering why they seem to have what you have been praying for. That was exactly where the psalmist found himself in Psalm 73. He was frustrated and confused until one thing changed. He entered the presence ...  Read More

Planted by the Stream
by Ministry Support on June 22nd, 2026
"He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers." - Psalm 1:3 The picture of a tree planted by streams of water is one of strength, stability, and life. It does not rely on the weather to survive because its roots reach deep into a constant source. No matter how dry the season or how hot the sun, it ...  Read More

My Proximity Matters
by Ministry Support on June 17th, 2026
"He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers." - Psalm 1:3 Where you are planted determines how you grow. A tree planted near water will always be stronger and more fruitful than one growing far from it. The psalmist uses that picture to show what life looks like when you stay close to God. When y...  Read More

You Can Do Nothing Without Jesus
by Ministry Support on February 4th, 2026
"I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing." – John 15:5 There is a kind of pressure that sneaks into your life when you believe everything depends on you. Maybe you’ve felt it. That need to perform, to achieve, to prove yourself to others or even to God. But this kind of pressure doesn’t produce fru...  Read More

The God Who Pitches His Tent with You
by Ministry Support on December 11th, 2025
"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us." - John 1:14 Most people believe in God on some level, but many picture Him as distant. Powerful, yes. Holy, yes. But close? Personal? Present in the everyday details of life? That is harder to believe. Yet this is exactly what John wants us to see. When he writes that Jesus “dwelt among us,” he uses a word that means to pitch a tent, to set up a home...  Read More

Presence Over Proof
by Ministry Support on November 22nd, 2025
"Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves." – John 14:11 There is a deep human instinct to want everything to make sense before we commit. We want certainty. We want proof. But Jesus didn’t say, “Understand me and then believe.” He said, “Believe in me.” That distinction is everything. Belief isn’t built on perfect clarity. It’s...  Read More

The Power of Presence
by Ministry Support on September 17th, 2025
“She brought an alabaster jar of perfume and stood behind him at his feet, weeping, and began to wash his feet with her tears.” - Luke 7:37-38 There’s something powerful that happens when you come into the presence of Jesus. The woman in Luke 7 didn’t come with a speech. She didn’t bring credentials or a resume. She brought her brokenness. And that was enough. Her actions were raw and real. She wa...  Read More
