Ps 94:19 When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer. Doubts are insidious and give us a feeling of uncertainty. Ever had doubts?

WORD OF THE DAY IS FREEDOM
Ps 92:1 It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to the Most High. In America we have many freedoms. We can vote, work and receive a paycheck and worship as we see fit.

WORD OF THE DAY IS REWARDS
Ps 91:16 I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.” Rewards are complicated. We want rewards. We work hard for them and sometimes do things we shouldn’t to receive them.
