SUNDAY CHOICE – He lived and died “Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength” Psalms 8:2 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of  heaven.”– Matthew 18:3  Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.–Matthew 19:14 The Scripture talks about how we need to have childlike faith. Children don’t try to figure everything out. When you tell your child that you’re going to buy them something or take them someplace, they don’t worry about any of the details. They don’t wonder if you have the finances to afford it. They don’t lose sleep over whether it’s going to happen or how it’s going to happen. To them, it’s just a matter of time to when you come through on it. Why? Because they trust you to take ...

SUNDAY CHOICE   “The Covid-19 pandemic has changed our lives in dramatic—and often traumatic—ways. “Lockdown”, for instance, has become part of our everyday vocabulary in many cities and countries around the world, as restrictions on movements are imposed to curb the spread of the corona virus and living with these restrictions can be challenging.  “The COVID-19 pandemic has served to divide some relationships with loved ones along the lines of vaccination. While in some cases there may be valid reasons for refraining from vaccination, such decisions have repercussions. Given the tensions that COVID-19 vaccination disagreements may cause, relationships may take more work to maintain.  While vaccine hesitancy has decreased over time, many remain unvaccinated across the country. Tensions between those who have been vaccinated and those who remain unvaccinated have the potential to cause a rift in some friendships and relationships with family members. Unfortunately, these disagreements extend even beyond vaccine decisions, as many people ...

In doing so he can freely release his perfect peace over your troubled mind and give you a solitude that ...
