EOY Reflection: REMOVE
Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways! Romans 11:33 NLT I love the invitation of the Advent season to take each day to focus on Jesus and God’s redemptive plan. I did not always mark Advent. It really was …
