Liberty in Law

These days the thought sounds contradictory to most anyone I would venture.  Yet it comes directly from Scripture.  “But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does.” – James 1:25.  [...]

What a week it has been

I have been a very bad blogger, and I am not going to offer any lame excuses for it this time.  I just want to fill you all in on the amazing things that God has done.  School has been interesting and I am only taking one class at the moment because I expect this [...]

Unconditional Love

Random Friday Musings
