We see something that needs to be done. We can either walk away, point it out to someone else, or do something about it.

Do something about it! Neh. 2:11ff When I was in High School, I had a love for classical music and for Broadway musicals. 1812 Overture was one of my favorites, as well as Handel’s “Messiah” especially the Halleluiah Chorus.

Not just any kind of tongues, prophecy, faith, generosity and sacrifice, but the ultimate kind. Tongues of men and of angels. Prophecy that fathoms all mystery and knowledge. Faith that can ...read more
