Genuine Love

Genuine Love By Billy Graham   •   October 28, 2016 . . . being knit together in love . . . —Colossians 2:2 Thousands of young couples go through with a loveless marriage because no one ever told them what genuine love is. I believe we need to read the 13th chapter of First Corinthians, in which the Apostle Paul gives us a definition of love. He says, “Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is…

Going Home

This week Cindy and I traveled south to visit an elderly aunt of mine that lives near the coast in Florida’s panhandle.  To get there, we had to pass through my old home town.  Things have really changed in the forty plus years since I left. Throughout the trip I felt like God was trying to tell me something.  I would see things and feel like there was a message in what I was seeing and that I needed to…

Bread of Life

Bread of Life By Billy Graham   •   October 26, 2016 I am the living bread that came down from heaven . . . —John 6:51 In John 6:48 we read that Jesus said, “I am the bread of life.” Jesus had just fed 5,000 people with five loaves and two fishes. They were all excited and thrilled over the great miracle that had occurred, [but] Jesus was talking about something more important than social needs. Bread in the Scriptures is…

Cure Discouragement

Cure Discouragement By Billy Graham   •   October 25, 2016 Wait on the Lord, be of good courage . . . —Psalm 27:14 Discouragement is nothing new. Many of the great Bible characters became discouraged.

There is often a cause for discouragement. It comes many…

Verse of the Day – John 6:35 KJV
