    As I get older, and my goal is to get as old as I can, I begin to realize some of the things I haven't noticed in my life.

     | 222 views

    I think that God expects us to respond (not react) when the world pushes back like Jesus responded to the folks who were unable to see what He was doing. It won’t make sense. Here’s an example of what Peter’s teaching would look like in his day: “Peter is telling the Christian merchant in ...read more
