OPINIONS ᏃᎵᏍᎬᎢ

SPEAKING OF FAITH: It takes Holy Spirit boldness, courage, and confidence
Read Acts 4:23-31; Proverbs 21:2-3, Ephesians 3:12, Proverbs 28:1, Matthew 29:16.
COMMENTARY: Where the water ran
“That really hit close to home.” You hear that every time a tragedy strikes a person or a community. Maybe it is a family member. Maybe a next-door neighbor. It could be a metaphoric statement, saying that you relate to what folks are going through. In some cases, it is literal.
