  • Getting What You Ask For From God

    Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on May 6, 2012

He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in ...read more
