"The world is a treacherous place," She bemoaned. "Don't you walk in the Light?" He reminded her. You have my hand. Just hold on tight." "I don't loath trials, Lord, but I'm scared of tests. "After all," she confessed, "I'm only flesh!" "Give ear to my Spirit, and abide in the truth. I promise you, [...]
The photo for this post is the Eagle Nebula. 😃 Amazing, huh? Photo credit goes to Pixabay.com userWikiImages. However, credit for the creation of the heavens goes to Jesus . It's time for some musical motivation. First were my "Fight Songs." Then came "Freedom Songs." The two have merged to become "F(l)ight Songs." Fight combined [...]
