Jesus is sufficient…  He is enough.

… “Jesus knew the Father would have to treat Jesus like Barabbas so he could treat Barabbas like Jesus” …

What are you holding onto today?  Give it to Jesus…

May Jesus have His way with your day

For example, for some, what you worship is an ideal. Whether that ideal … Click to Continue →
