There’s a whole word just outside Your front door. Do you know where your call will lead you? Just don’t close doors too quickly ,,, nor rush to take paths that aren’t yours to pursue. While we all are called to witness, it may be no further than the person sitting across from you. Will,
Once you have been saved, you are in the fight of your life and it doesn’t end until you are home with the Lord. Daunting? Sounds like it. Being a Christian, in my thinking, is not an easy thing – it’s not supposed to be a bed of roses. Though there’s a slight possibility that
