    Angels sometimes come in the guise of needy persons to test our compassion, greed, selfishness, and obedience to help the poor. We should be diligent to minister to those less fortunate: they might even be angels.

    The Humble Will Receive Grace, I Promise! Series

His wife thought for a minute and said, “Well, I don’t know how many really great preachers there are, but ...read more
