Choosing God's Kingdom Over Worldly Comforts

  • Summary

  • "Whether you are in a moment of celebration or in a moment of despair, seek his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well."- Wesleyne

    Word of the Day:

    Matthew 6:33- "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
