Verse of the Day – Matthew 6:25-26 KJV
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought of your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.

Are ye not much better than they?

Truth By Billy Graham • January 17, 2017 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. —John 8:32 Ours is an age of philosophical uncertainty, and we no longer know what we believe.

Rejoice in Him
Rejoice in Him By Billy Graham • January 16, 2017 I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. —Habakkuk 3:18 Christians are supposed to be happy persons!
