Sacrifice

January 9, 2022 By David Trounce Leave a Comment

Sacrifice

If you want something, you are going to have to pay for it, or else pay later for having it. And you are going to pay for it in blood, sweat and tears. This is not something we want to hear.

#09 God's Unfailing Love - A Survey of Christ in the Old Testament

The mind and body are geared for growth and are a metaphor for what is meant to happen as we grow in Christ. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a … [Read more...] about Thumb Suckers
