Christian - forgiven - grateful

Welcome! My name is Richard Templin Hancock and I am a senior citizen who has found great peace in his old age in the forgiveness that Jesus Christ offers to sinners. I enjoy reading my Bible and recording short Devotional podcasts with the aim to encourage us all to have faith in God and follow His Son Jesus Christ every day.
I hope the following blog posts will be an encouragement to you:

Keep it simple, Keep it Jesus

The message is simple: Come to Jesus. Seek faith in Him. Rest in Him. Learn from Him. As Matthew 11:28-29 tells us, "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."

The yoke of following Jesus is not a heavy burden. In fact, Matthew 11:30 reminds us, "For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Let's take a moment to pray: Lord Jesus, we draw near to you in this moment. We ask that You help our thoughts and actions always be motivated by faith and obedience to You. Amen.
