The Danger of Buried Pain
by Thomas Cheevers on October 29th, 2025
“In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.” – Ephesians 4:26Buried pain doesn’t disappear—it festers. When we avoid dealing with wounds, resentment becomes the quiet architect of distance between us and others. We often think ignoring pain is the same as forgiving, but suppression is not healing. Scripture reminds us that unresolved anger gives the enemy a foo...  Read More

The Source of Our Strength
by Thomas Cheevers on October 28th, 2025
“You, Lord, are forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to you.” – Psalm 86:5Forgiveness is not a feeling we muster; it’s a miracle we receive. Too often, we approach forgiveness like an act of sheer willpower—gritting our teeth, saying the words, but feeling no release. The truth is, human strength can’t carry the weight of divine love. Real forgiveness flows only from the source Hi...  Read More

But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." – 1 Corinthians 6:11The enemy loves to use your past as evidence against your present and future.

Vertical Love
by Thomas Cheevers on October 23rd, 2025
Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. – Ecclesiastes 4:9–10When love is built only on human emotion, it eventually runs dry. Feelings fade, chemistry shifts, and compatibility can falter under the weight of life’s pressures. But when love is built v...  Read More
