The scene above and where I live in AZ is a continual reminder to me to praise GOD for HIS grace and mercy. I love the saguaro cactus and how they stand tall with arms raised as if to praise GOD in all of HIS creation. Some might think the desert is ugly, but the … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS
John Wesley once said this: “GOD breathes into us every good desire and brings every good desire to good effect.” When GOD changes our hearts from stone to flesh, our desires change.
