    This is a discourse to observe our role as God meant for us when He made us and gave us life. And to understand how Creation is God’s overarching plan to bless us with a part to be witnesses of His love, mercy, grace, power and goodness.

    God who is Creator is also my Helper 1. Psalm 121:1-2 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

The followers were to be unwavering and fruitful while he was gone. ...read more
