You pull it back in, and you've got a boatload of fish, all different kinds. That's what Jesus said the Kingdom of Heaven is like. Jesus wasn't just talking ...read more

To our cry, “How long O Lord?” comes the message of Obadiah, that God is in control and that He is working out His will and purpose through it all, or what He says through Obadiah at the very end of this letter, “The kingdom shall be the Lord's.” (Obadiah 1:21)
