In his letter to the Philippians (which can be found in the Bible, in case you didn’t know), Paul mentioned “fellow workers” whose names are written in the Book of Life. And I believe that’s a book you wanna make sure your name is in. I know I do. Because, Whether it’s a physical book or not, it appears to be pretty important. Because … The rest of the story…
Yea, I’ve got some good news. Especially if you’ve been singing the blues because you don’t know what God‘s will is for your life. First off, let me say I’d never recommend not praying.

Well, not all the time anyway. … The rest of the story…

And why waste your time trying to get understanding when the price of silver is trending upwards. C’mon. Let’s be logical about this. After all, I’m sure you’ve seen the … The rest of the story…
