Too many of us get so caught up in the day-to-day routine that we never take a moment to appreciate the gift of life that the Lord has given us. We wake up, race to work, put in a full day, race home, have dinner, maybe rest for a short while, head to bed, and […]

In today’s busy world, we face numerous temptations that can be overwhelming. The moment we go online, we can easily access websites related to gambling, pornography, and opportunities to cheat on our spouses.
