Contentment short of what God desires for us is not gain, but loss!!!(No fire / smoke) 3.) I want all that God wants to give me!!! There are two ...read more

Which is to say, Since the Lord is my leader, I will not need anything else. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he ...read more
