“Love never fails.” – 1 Corinthians.13:8
 

Relentless

Reinventing
I have many, but one that comes to mind are lines from a Kenny Roger's song. It can be applied in all areas of your life.

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
Know when to run

Also, the enemy comes but to kill, steal, and destroy.

Wonderful Thread... :yep:

One day these words came from my grandson (he was just knee-high to a grasshopper). :lol: We couldn't find his Dad's car keys which were always in the same place. As we were all searching for the keys these words just flowed from my baby's heart.

"Evil Shall Not Triumph over Good"

I was amazed and realized that what we say around our children, that they are not only listening but interpreting (processing) what they hear us saying. The Word in some format or another is always spoken in our homes and these words flowed from his heart.

BTW: Not even minutes later, we almost immediately found the keys after these words were spoken. :yep: God is awesome. He is faithful to watch over His Word to perform it.
