I have to apologize. I didn’t get my post completed. I played with my four grandchildren: Friday, Saturday, and Sunday instead. Their ages are 8, 6, 4 and 20 months. We made pancakes for supper, Christmas wreaths for hanging in their homes. We painted ornaments then glued pom…
Philippians 3:12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it…
