. . . I don't claim that I know everything about life. But one thing I am certain that apart from the love and mercies of Christ—I AM NOTHING. " But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world."(Galatians 6:14). All to JESUS I surrender. . .all to Thee my Blessed Savior. . .I surrender all. Thank YOU my Precious LORD JESUS for all Your blessings in my life. I love YOU, and thank YOU for loving me first. Forever Yours--Erlinda Mejia Olson

Be Still...& KNOW: God's Names in the Bible

One of the greatest ways God reveals Himself to us is through the names given to Him in the Bible.

“Jehovah Nissi—He is our victory. Jehovah Rapha—the God who heals.”

... The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are safe.

“El Shaddai—Almighty God.”

... When you get overwhelmed, confused, exhausted, you need a safe place where you can run and be protected. You need the name of the Lord.

“Jehovah Jireh—the Lord will provide.”

... Whatever you’re facing, whether it’s a hectic schedule, difficult marriage, a lonely apartment—you need a safe place.

“Jehovah Shalom—God our peace.”

... When you feel overwhelmed or discouraged, run to the name of the Lord and be safe.

“Emmanuel—God with us.”
