You can’t always control what happens around you — but you can rule over what happens within you.

God has both a divine and a human family, and as believers in Jesus, we are part of His human family. But with that comes responsibility—our free will allows us to choose obedience or disobedience. In Genesis 3, we see how the enemy deceived Eve, not by offering her something new, but by making her question what she already had. Today, we face similar challenges. Our choices either honor God and r...

As believe...
