God is omniscient. He’s all knowing. There is nothing that has ever happened, or will ever happen that he doesn’t already know. Whether we like it or not – it’s Biblical truth, and it’s hard to wrap our brain around. It’s sobering reality to accept that he sees the good – but he also seesRead more

Wait! That was the word that shrieked through my mind. I could feel it, that word… It screamed at an ear shattering decibel as it started at the back of my brain did a couple loops around and just as it was about to zip out of my mouth my lips clamped shut. I’m notRead more
