You reap what you plant. • We need to set up this “greenhouse” of the mind - to make sure that no virus or pests enter. 2 ...read more

In our world today, man seeks to establish peace, yet whatever successes he might seem to achieve are never permanent. Instead of achieving peace, man continually lives with chaos, confusion, ...read more
