Do not rephrase or rearrange the sentence but pause, reflect and let it sink in NOT ALL IS LOST! Loss is one of the most devastating issues with no rules or plans. It ...read more

Two Brothers With An Agenda

Contributed by Robert Butler on Feb 14, 2022

The original disciples were no different than us in their pride until they fully understood what Jesus did for them AND only then did the commitment make sense.
