God Is Greater Than Our Heart

August 27, 2026

Have you ever asked God to forgive you for something, yet you continue to bring that same sin back to Him? Sometimes the hardest person to forgive is ourselves.

We remember our failures. We think about what we should have done differently. Our heart condemns us, and we allow guilt from the past to steal the joy God wants us to have today.

But God’s Word gives us wonderful assurance: “God is greater than our heart.”

When we confess our sin and truly turn to the Lord, He forgives. We do not have to keep carrying what Jesus has already taken away.

The Bible tells us, “As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.” — Psalm 103:12

And Micah 7:19 tells us that God will “cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.”

What a wonderful picture of God’s mercy! Our forgiven sins do not need to be pulled back up and examined over and over again. God knows everything about us—the good, the bad, the failures, and the regrets—and He still loves us.

If your heart is reminding you today of something God has already forgiven, remember this: God is greater than your heart.

Accept His forgiveness. Leave the past with Him. Thank Him for His mercy, and move forward in the joy and freedom that Jesus Christ gives.

Thank You, Lord, for forgiveness that is greater than our failures.

Thank You, SOS Events Supporters

August 25, 2026

Thank you who give to SOS Events Ministry. Founded in 2001 this ministry has documented over 80,000 souls who have made decisions to follow Jesus. There are some of you who have prayed, volunteered and given financially since the very beginning. Others are new supporters.

Contributions come in snail mail with checks or even cash and there are those people who prefer to give through PayPal. The amount varies from one time large gifts to the little ladies who may send a dollar or two each month. Every donation is appreciated and used to win souls to Christ.

The only paid positions in SOS Events are the small office staff. All others from the President of the ministry to volunteers who spend their own money many times for travel and even cost of events receive nothing from SOS Events except prayer and appreciation. There are a few missionaries who receive designated support and every penny goes directly to them.

Some of you who read this blog may be “turned off” by the subject of money but it does take money to function and win souls in today’s economy. If you have never given to SOS Events but would like to give, every donation large or small is appreciated and will be used to win people to the Lord. Go to the home page and click on the donate button or send via snail mail to SOS, P.O. Box 189, Dover, FL 33527.

If you cannot give financially you can do something even more needed. Pray everyday for the staff, volunteers and most of all for lost souls to be saved.

Love And Forgive

August 20, 2026

Do you have someone you will not forgive?

Forgiveness is a choice. We can harbor that hurt and not forgive or you can choose to forgive and try to mend that broken relationship.

If restoration is not possible, then forgive that person in your heart. Pray for those who despite fully use use you, the Bible tells us. It is hard to hold onto not forgiving when you genuinely pray for that person.

Decide today and start to pray for that one who has hurt you. You will have a freedom you cannot imagine until you do.

What Is True Love?

June 24, 2026

 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

What do you think of when you hear the word love? You may think of your spouse, your children.

We use the word love about material things. “ I love my house”

What is true love? The best example is found in the familiar verse, John 3:16. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

God’s love is the greatest love we can experience. He sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross to pay the penalty for our sin. 

Because of His great love we can have eternal life. 

Have you accepted His love?

Love One Another

June 17, 2026

In a world that often encourages us to look out for ourselves first, Jesus gives us a higher calling—to love others the way He loves us. His love is patient, forgiving, sacrificial, and unconditional. It reaches beyond differences, overlooks faults, and seeks the good of others.

As Christians, we are not simply asked to be kind when it is easy. We are commanded to love as Christ loved us. When we show compassion, offer forgiveness, lend a helping hand, or share the Gospel, we reflect the love of Jesus to a world that desperately needs Him.

Today, ask the Lord to help you love others through His strength and grace. One act of Christlike love can make an eternal difference in someone’s life.


Lord, help me to love others as You have loved me. Let Your love shine through my words, actions, and attitudes today.

The Family

June 8, 2026

Family is one of God’s greatest blessings. Through family we experience love, encouragement, support, and shared memories. Whether it is parents, children, grandchildren, siblings, or dear friends who have become like family, these relationships enrich our lives and remind us that we were created for fellowship.

Yet as wonderful as our earthly families are, there is an even greater family to which every believer belongs—the family of God. When we trust Christ as our Savior, we are adopted into God’s family and become brothers and sisters in Christ. Earthly families are precious, but they are temporary. Our relationship with God and His family is eternal.

The family of God spans every nation, generation, and background. One day, all who know Christ will be gathered together in heaven, united forever in His presence. What a joyful reunion that will be! Until then, we should cherish our earthly families while also investing in our spiritual family, encouraging one another and pointing others to Jesus.

KJV Verse

“Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;”— Ephesians 2:19 (KJV)

Fear or Faith!

June 3, 2026

Fear comes in many forms. We fear for our children and grandchildren. We fear losing our health, our job, our finances, or even relationships that are precious to us. Sometimes we worry about the future and wonder what tomorrow may bring.

While these fears are common, God’s Word reminds us that fear is not from Him. The Lord never intended for His children to live in constant worry and anxiety. Instead, He has given us power to face life’s challenges, love to care for others without being controlled by fear, and a sound mind to trust His promises.

Faith does not mean that we never experience fearful thoughts. It means that when fear knocks at the door of our hearts, we answer with trust in God. We remember that the same God who cared for us yesterday is caring for us today and will care for us tomorrow.

Whatever fear you may be facing today, place it in the hands of the Lord. He already knows the future, and He promises to walk with you every step of the way.

Choose faith over fear! God’s power is greater than your problem, His love is deeper than your worry, and His peace is stronger than your fear.

I Have 2 Birthdays!

June 1, 2026

Today is my birthday, and I am thankful for every year that God has given me. Birthdays are special because they remind us of the gift of life. But as I reflect on this day, I am reminded of a birthday that is even more important than the day I was physically born.

In 1960, I experienced my “second birthday” when I trusted Jesus Christ as my Savior and was born again. That decision changed not only my life on earth but also my eternity. Physical birth gave me life in this world, but spiritual birth gave me eternal life through Jesus Christ.

When Jesus spoke to Nicodemus, He made it clear that being born again is not optional. He said:

“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3:3 KJV)

Over the years, God has blessed me with family, friends, opportunities to serve, and the privilege of sharing the Gospel through SOS Events. There have been joys and sorrows, victories and challenges, but through it all, the Lord has remained faithful.

As Carolyn Curtis celebrates another birthday today, my greatest reason for rejoicing is not my age or the number of years behind me. It is the wonderful truth that in 1960 I became a child of God. That was the day my eternal life began.

If you know the date of your second birthday, thank God for it today. If you have never been born again, there is no better time than now to trust Christ as your Savior.

The best birthday anyone can celebrate is the day they were born into God’s family.

God’s Unconditional Love!

April 29, 2026

Don’t let your past determine your future. Look to God for the truth. Don’t let the past steal you from the joys of today. The Lord has so much for you.

I pray you will take time to read His Word daily and talk to Him through prayer then watch how he will guide you. He wants to walk with you every minute of the day, you are so important to Him. Ask Him to open your eyes to the truth of His unconditional love for you. See yourself through His eyes.

Jeremiah 33:3 (KJV) says, Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
