     | 1,599 views

    How often do we make excuses and look for loopholes when we fall short of our calling to shine for God?

    Only by wading into the life that Christ offers and letting it wash away our sins, our false identity, our injustice and selfishness, our commitment to violence will we be recognized and worship the One who is coming in Bethlehem.
