Hold up a glass of water and ask, “How much does this glass of water weigh? 8oz. – 20oz.? The actual weight of the glass doesn’t matter. It’s how long you have to hold it that matters. If you hold it for a minute, that’s no big deal. If you […]

Accept Instruction!
We all have the responsibility to make choices in life. It amazes me how two very similar individuals can make two completely different life choices. Cain and Abel were both sons of Adam. Abel chose God and Cain chose murder. Abraham and Lot were family and both pilgrims in Canaan. […]
