I know of no other apple as delicious as a Pink Lady. They aren't locally grown in my region of Canada, and I usually have to buy them from one of the superstores in the United States. All week long I had been enjoying them, and I had saved my last one for our trip. I...
Last week, in The Grass is Always Greener, Part 2, we saw that we need to search our lives for any areas where we've subscribed to the "Greener Grass" mentality and renounce these in the name of Jesus. We must then spend time looking for the many blessings God has put...
In Matthews 12: 31-32 says that every blasphemy will be forgiven men but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man it will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit it will not be forgiven...
