Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. ...read more

When people hit rock bottom, they will tell God anything-- sincerely. But what happens after God helps them?
