    All I need to know I learned from Noah’s Ark, and it is quite amazing. One, don’t miss the boat. Two, remember that we are all in the same boat. Three, plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark. Four, stay fit. When you’re 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really ...read more

No matter how good we are, or how bad we can be, God still loves us. Our wrong doings separates us from ...read more
