Present Sufferings, Future Glory
18I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory about to be revealed to us. 19For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the children of God; 20for the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will but by the will of the one whoContinue reading “Present Sufferings, Future Glory”

18While he was saying these things to them, suddenly a leader of the synagogue came in and knelt before him, saying, “My daughter has just died; but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.” 19And Jesus got up and followed him, with his disciples. 20Then suddenly a woman who had been suffering fromContinue reading “A Girls and a Woman Healed”

We share in Christ’s Death and New Life
What then are we to say? Should we continue in sin in order that grace may abound? 2By no means!

A Call to God for Deliverance
1Save me, O God, for the waters have come up to my neck. 2I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold; I have come into deep waters, and the flood sweeps over me. 3I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched. My eyes grow dim with waiting for my God. 4MoreContinue reading “A Call to God for Deliverance”
