July at Living Word
Do you ever feel a sense of urgency to tell someone as fast of possible by any means necessary?
What are you telling them about?
Life is full of choices. Sometimes you must decide between good or bad and other times between good and best. Decisions may challenge you. You know there are consequences, yet you may choose to ignore them. What do you use to decide? Understand that choosing to follow and trust God’s plan is the best choice.
