    The names and the meaning of the four rivers of Eden give us a clue about what the Holy one of Israel wants to lead us into as we abandon ourselves to Him! This is not the promise for a few, but this is the promise to the “Sons & Daughters” whom Jesus has

The verses we have already studied have been inspiring and uplifting for me, personally. But what we will read ...read more
