HANDLING HURTS

I looked at my proteges that night and said to them, “I pray the blessings of the Lord more for those who hurt me”. They obviously needed more explanation.

HER CRY BUT MY DECISION

As I stepped out to put on the generating set, Danielle ran after me. I said to her, “You are not dressed. You cannot come out. Insects can bite you”. At those words, I slammed the door shut. She burst into tears. She cried but I knew what was the best for her. No amount of tears would make me […]

My brother said, “Must it be church all the time?” My dad (the pastor of the church) did not utter a single word. He simply turned around and went to church. Honestly, every man must be able to stand […]
