  • Add To Your Faith

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Jun 19, 2020
     | 2,936 views

    We must see to it that our belief is immovable, “so we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever” (2 Corinthians 4:18, NLT). I have it on very ...read more
