    If we have our minds centred in Christ, focussed on the things that please God, then we won't need a rule book. If God's word dwells in us the way our lives are hidden with Christ then we'll do things that please God automatically.

And open my heart so I may receive all that You want me to receive. AMEN Have you ever felt like throwing in the towel? Do you know what it means to ...read more
