There is … Continue reading Psalm 34:5
“So Pilate, wanted to gratify the crowd, released Barabbas to them; and he delivered Jesus, after he scourged Him to be crucified.” Mark 15:15 The last several days, I thought about Pontius Pilate a lot.

Blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him.” Psalm 34:8 To experience how good He is, you need to get close to Him. If you are reading this, this is one of the ways. Meditating on His Word.

I believe in 2021, a lot of us stayed in the THICKET. There was a lot that we didn’t know. We were on the defense and not on the offense. We played it safe. We stayed in a place of comfort, a place of protection.
