    We do good because we have been made good. We do good because it is God's purpose for us. We do good because it is a way of life.

     | 19,620 views

The readings for today are: Genesis 25:19-34; Psalm 119:105-112; Romans 8:1-11; and Mathew 13:1-23. A Pastor in the Philippines, ......a much loved man of God ......carried the burden of a ...read more
