  • Matthews is on the move for CCFA

    Cassandra Matthews, the daughter of Henry and Jane Matthews of Buffalo, has never lived a “normal” life.

    Diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at age 3, Matthews has gone through a constant battle with medicines, diet restrictions and numerous hospital visits.

    “There have always been certain things that I cannot eat. I couldn’t have lettuce, up until three years ago, or anything with peanuts,” Matthews said.

    “I had my first peanut butter sandwich with Sun Butter in May. I was ecstatic.”

  • Need a friend? Try one who will never leave you

    Loneliness is no respecter of persons. People may turn to drink, lose their sanity, and commit suicide because of the despair of loneliness. How many lonely people there are today!

    God did not create man to live in miserable inner loneliness. Jesus came to restore fellowship between man and God, and to take away human loneliness. Jesus Christ will take away loneliness from your soul. He will be your companion and friend.

  • Commitment, surrender, obedience

    The answer to a richer, fuller life is in Jesus. This kind of life comes about as a result of a continual relationship with him through commitment, surrender and obedience.

    Paul mentions three simple acts in 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 that will promote a fuller life. First, Paul says, “Be joyful always.” This joy must be found in the Lord.

    Some seek their joy in toys, trinkets and treasures of this life, but these are temporary and do not last. True joy comes from our relationship with the Lord.
