Contributed by Herb Pulse on May 14, 2022

What is it that you and I see when we go to God? Do we see ourselves through God’s lens?

All seems very wonderful on the surface. How wonderful it is for men to pray!

All I ever heard when I first got saved was that all preachers are in it for the money. I have striven to never have that said of me. I have most ...read more
