“Farmers who wait for perfect weather never plant. If they watch every cloud, they never harvest.” - Ecclesiastes 11:4 Over the last couple of days, we have talked about the disease of perfectionism.

by Ministry Support on May 4th, 2022
“He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.” - Genesis 16:12We have been discussing why we should not step outside the will of God.
