One Important Task
We learn from Psalm 78 that it is our responsibility to tell the generations younger than us, “the glorious deeds of the LORD, and his might, and the wonders that he has done.” There are many people who have children, grandchildren, and even great children who you wish and pray,…
Two Approaches to God: Complaining and Trusting
