    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 3, 2013
     | 2,304 views

Let’s be honest. We aren’t talking about ...read more

    based on 8 ratings

    What God is doing is hidden. It must be searched for and we must have eyes to see. When we believe this, it changes the way we see life and how we live.
