Let Us Alone That We May Serve ….

When the Israelites saw them in pursuit, the Bible says, “…They were sore afraid…” In that fear they turned to Moses and said something that was very disturbing. We read, “…And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore ...read more

I once heard it said that you should appreciate what you have, before it becomes what you had.(1) This is an ...read more
