If You can See it, You can Overcome it

Hello all, I hope we are good! This morning, I woke up thinking about an issue that has seemingly refused to go away, and I was almost feeling down. Then I remembered a verse of scripture that I feel like sharing with you now. So we do not focus on what is seen, but on what is unseen.

The Truth and the Facts

The Truth and the Facts

The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever. Isaiah 40:8 God’s Word is truth. There’s a difference between the truth and facts. Facts are facts. They are real.
