Word for today
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.”
Come as you are. He is already near.
Quote of the day
“When I got sober, finally, 43 years ago, what occurred to me was the fact that I needed my relationship back with Jesus Christ.”
Not an endorsement of everything they say or do — a window toward Jesus.
How are you?
Start where it hurts.
