Don’t Wound the Wounded
But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them.

Now they make for strange bedfellows,Lifting up their barks and bellows,Thirst for lust, not what is holy,They are moving very slowly. Not sincere, they hide their motives,Make excuses for explosives,Vain in worship, God not Master,Far from Him they … Continue reading While They’re Sleeping

Play with fire, will get burned.Not intending hearts to turn.Always running here or there,Seeming to not have a care.
