Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Christians sometimes struggle with whether they are in the will of God, or not. The Bible gives us many directives to help us know His will. If you are confused about what to do, seek the Lord, and He will guide you.

God Bless You!

--FEATURED Funny:

Parents are expected to participate in their children's education, and my friends were no exception. They gladly help their fifth-grade son, Andrew, whenever he's stumped.

One day after school, Andrew ran into the house waving a paper in the air. "Hey, Mom, great news! There were only three mistakes on my math homework," he announced. "You made one, Dad made one and I made one!"

--ANSWER TO TRIVIA QUESTION:

Q. What did Elisha do before the Shunammite woman's child came back to life.

A. And [Elisha] went up and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands; and he stretched himself out on the child, and the flesh of the child became warm. He returned and walked back and forth in the house, and again went up and stretched himself out on him; then the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.

2 Kings 4:34-35
