Planting Seeds: Faith in the Unseen Results
So, will we always see the result of the work we’ve done by witnessing to others and being there when they need us the most? Most certainly not. But that shouldn’t discourage us from being there and sharing the Gospel. You see, we never really know how God is using us, we just need to have faith...

Stop Gossip, Start Believing the Best in Others
I don’t know about you but I’ve got to do better at turning off gossip when I hear it. I also need to not “enable it” when I hear it by giving a participatory laugh or, “now way!” It just makes it worse.
