Of Logs and Presents
September 22, 2008
Tonight, God showed me I need to address the huge log that’s lodged in my eye before I ever dare to judge the specks in anyone elses. No more false modesty. No more ‘public’ self-degradation. God needs to become enough for me. My heart needs to learn to be content with Him and Him alone. [...]
10 Commandments as Wedding Vows?
