"The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; He repaid me according to the cleanness of my hands".



Let me ask you a question. How clean are your hands? Look at them. If they are like mine, they are probably stained somewhat with guilt, sin, and selfishness- the hallmarks of an imperfect life. Fortunately, Jesus Christ came into the world to wash away our sins completely, that we may stand blameless and spotless before God- the hallmark of a Christian life. Thank goodness my… Continue

What a way to start off a series about the most powerful verses in the Bible, huh? We sure didn't have to look very far!

This verse is very dear to me because it debunks several major theological and scientific questions right off the bat.

Welcome to my new blog! I hope to share some valuable insights about the kingdom of God here with you as well as some interesting stories that i am sure will bless you. Let me begin by sharing a litle about my faith. One reason why I am such a big fan of Christianity is because it provides a true, solid foundation that I can build my life upon. It is my starting point, my fuel for the journey, my safety net, as well as my final destination. Every morning I say a little prayer of thanksgiving… Continue
