When I think of the wording in this verse of being marked with a stamp,
the first thing that comes to mind is a USDA meat inspector’s seal. For them this seal
says that the product is okay for human consumption. But then I think about it
a little more and realize that unlike the USDA stamp, the

I don't believe that just because someone believes something, that that makes it so. But there is something to be said for having a positive attitude; especially when God has made a promise.
As much as 77% of everything we think is negative and counterproductive and works against us. People who

In fact, our relationships are more important to us than any anything else.
Example Evidence for this, if we need it, can be found in such things as the last messages sent or spoken by those who knew they were about to die in the 9/11 plane crashes. The final messages were all expressions of
