Haughty Faces, Ichabod, And God’s Glow!

Don't Waste Your Life Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 7, 2016

It is not enough to have great potential or show great promise. It is what you do with that potential that makes all the difference. A good beginning does not guarantee a good end. End your life well, to the glory of God.
