| This Week @ Trinity April 25, 2013 |
|
God showed me in my palm a little thing round as a ball about the size of a hazelnut...I wondered how it could survive since it seemed so little and it could suddenly disintegrate into nothing. The answer came: "It endures and ever will endure because God loves it." And so everything has being because of God's love.
