Becoming a humble child of God
To whom does entry into the kingdom of heaven belong?
By Tim Trainor
Click here to read Tim Trainor's reflection from August 12, 2025. Here's an excerpt:
First, the desire to become like Him: though created in His image, we are restored to His likeness by grace; and we must respond to this grace. Second, develop the disposition of a humble and trusting heart that enables us "to turn and become like children": for it is to "little children" that the Father is revealed.
Tim Trainor’s reflections: He said to him, “Follow me.” And leaving everything behind, he got up and followed him. (Luke 5:27)
God knows what he is doing
'He will be with you and will never fail you or forsake you'
By Steve Hall

He will be with you and will never fail you or forsake you. How many ways must Moses say it, for it all comes down to one thing: God knows what he is doing.
Steve Hall's reflections: For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. (1 Corinthians 13:9)
