Are you trying to run away from God ordained relationships because you are unable to handle them? Stop and get back to God and submit to His authority. The Lord can do wonders to restore relationships, and He will bring peace to our restless hearts.

What Does It Mean To Have Spiritually Blurred Vision?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 24, 2023
