    I Belong To The Lord, Body And Soul!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 19, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,181 views

    When God first called you what was your response? When God next calls you to something new, something different, what will be your response? The key to this Bible reading is Mary’s response of obedience. “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary said. “May it be to me as you have said” (1:38). JB Phillips ...read more
