Have a Blessed 1st Monday in February with Jesus.❄️Seek Him First. Meditate on 2 Corinthians 12.  Paul was dealing with a thorn in his flesh.

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭NIV‬ (Study from *Life Ap

Have a Blessed last Thursday in January with Jesus. ❄️ Seek Him First. Meditate on Matthew 6.

Be content with what God has already given you. Monitor what you are willing to do to get more money. Love people m

Have a Blessed Dr. MLK Day with Jesus. ❄️ Seek Him First. Paul breaks down the difference between freedom to sin and freedom to serve. Freedom to sin offers no freedom at all, because it enslaves us to Satan, others, or our own sinful nature. Christians shouldn’t be slaves to sin, because we are free to do what God wants and to glorify Him by demonstrating loving service to others. We can only love others when we accept Jesus into our hearts. JESUS is LOVE. 🙏🏾 ”You, my bro
