    When you hold onto the sins and shortcomings of others, it hurts you. Forgiveness can release you of that pain. To err IS human; but to forgive FEELS divine!

     | 188,353 views

    Sometimes our disappointments in life can become God’s appointments, so don’t let closed doors bother you. The things we think of as failures and problems can often end up being blessings in disguise.

    INTRODUCTION It seems doors of opportunity open and close before us in life. Is it God opening and closing these doors?

    based on 39 ratings
     | 53,928 views
