His Faithful Love Endures Forever


And ever, and ever...
Psalm 136 takes the reader from seeing the big picture of who God is,  funnels down to his wondrous acts,  and brings it into eye view by declaring his acts in the writers personal life. It resonates with this mantra-his faithful love endures forever.
I noticed, that though the phrase is repetitive, it is not redundant. It comes at the beginning, middle, and end of each recount of God's merciful acts to Israel. It seems to cut in, where the story should logically continue; but there it is, smack in the middle - "His mercy endures forever".
This is a strong reminder that the God who in the start of this chapter created the heavens as an act of mercy, is capable of securing every moment of your life story. Every detail of our lives are painted with the brush of his enduring faithful love.
Recognize his mercy at work in the harder moments. They too are part of the beautiful story that will testify of his mercy toward you, and add to the great picture of Who God is.
Warmest thoughts and prayers, Chantel Dillard

Mission: New Tribes

Hi Family! We hope that your holiday was truly blessed! Not blessed with things  but blessings of fellowship, giving, and most importantly, love. I think we take for granted the opportunity to be surrounded by people who  actually  want to be around us and who want to invest in our lives in some way! Although our year is full of holidays of pagan origin, they are awesome times for the family of God to gather together and just love on each other! Also, I surely don't take holidays that my husband gets off of work lightly! Love....

Mission: Christmas Blessing

Peace & love everybody! I've been so excited it's been hard to contain myself regarding today's mission! I hope that after reading this post, you'll be as encouraged as I am now! Known by most today as "the last Stalinist country" and according to VOM, "one of the most repressive and isolated regimes in the world", North Korea needs our prayers, monetary support, and volunteers. It's even being reported that a holocaust is occurring there as I'm writing this! Christians are being tortured, killed, and having "experiments" run on them all because they testify that Jesus is their Lord. Read a short synopsis of what Persecution.com has to say about North Korea and check out their related links. Thanks to our family over at The Voice of the Martyrs, we will be able to encourage and support our North Korean brothers and sisters! With our donations of $50 we will be able to sponsor a package that will have hard-to-get essentials, ...
