Creative ways to say “I love you!”… “I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people” ~Vincent Van Gogh I love you! Easy peasy to say, right?

Daily Bread from the Psalms (Psalm 14)
Daily Bread from the Psalms -Psalm 14- What would it be like to walk through all the ups and downs of life without God? Do you remember a time when you tried? If you’ve been a believer for awhile, you will understand how different your life is since you met Jesus. Hopeful. Peaceful. Joyful. And none of which depend on your circumstances. Maybe you’ve found yourself reading this post today, and wondering about the existence of God at all. Come and meet Him. He’s more real than anything you’ve experienced before. He loves you. He cares. He moves. If you don’t know Him, my heart reaches out to you…
