(Psalm 95:1-3 NASB) Just because He’s a great God, we praise and shout joyfully. Just because He’s great. I love this Psalm. There’s nothing complicated here. Nothing I need to figure out.…
Good Changes and Fear
Why is it that I get some strong desire, pray over it, the doors open, I even hear You say yes, this is what You have for me, and then when the moment of fruition comes, I suddenly don’t want it anymore? Not only do I not want it, but I’m sure it’s a bad…
