    Your decisions affect your destiny

    Blessing, Division, and Vision Genesis 13: 1 Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot with him, to the South. 2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold. 3 And he went on his journey from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had ...read more

I hardly ever read my Bible or anything else that might stimulate my spirituality. I always seem to be unhappy with the ...read more
