Serving The Lord With All Your Heart

Contributed by Lola Olanrewaju on Nov 4, 2018

The book of Romans 12:11 analysed what it means to serve God with all our heart. It basically means to be fully devoted to God. It means to show enthusiasm in the things of God and be on fire for Him. I believe having a fully devoted heart is one of the characters we need to possess as a Christian. ...read more
