We shall not be disappointed Sometimes in life people get disappointed. Things get out of hand and become disjointed.

And it did not take too long, To see

FEAR NOT! GOD IS IN CONTROL. Fear….., what is fear? Fear can be described as a feeling of danger, threat, panic or anxiety that arises as a result of what happens around us or what is happening within us (in our minds). The most important point however is this; fear, that feeling, that emotion, is not of God. 2 Timothy

When we feel that things are out of our control we tend to worry but how do you stop worrying? We should understand that worrying never helps a situation get better. Worrying sends a message to ourselves and those around us that we are helpless and have nowhere to turn. However, as Christians, we believe that God has everything in

MY HOPE HAS COME There were days when I just wanted to give it all up, When it seemed like the storms were not going to stop, Days when it felt like I was in an out-of-control spin, But God’s mighty hand reined me back in. Yes, sometimes it’s really quite grim out there, So overwhelming that it gives one
