The Lord your God is the Ultimate Therapist. Since all therapy is a two-way street, it should not be a surprise that God’s therapy is also two-way. Too often, people regard prayer as one-sided. However, the Bible is clear that God is still speaking. Too often we think God has said all He has to…
I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hastknown my soul in adversities; and hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thouhast set my feet in a large room. (Psalm 31:7-8) He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated…

Who loves you? There is no more important question to a human being than this one. If we have no one that loves us, we are bereft and most to be pitied. We need love. God made us that way, and He always intended to be the Source of that love. He is the Spring…
In these days, our mental health is especially important. Mental health is determined by the source of our thoughts. Mental health affects how we think, feel and act; determines how we handle stress, relate to God and others, and make choices.
