IN YOUR DARKEST MOMENTS

And the bible says, “…at the fourth watch” (according to the Romans, it’s the time spanning from 3am – 6am) of the night, which is the darkest time.

It actually says “a strong wind was blowing - boisterous.” Stay with me… And Jesus came walking on water...

Every year nearly 2 million children are exploited in the global commercial sex trade. And in the 4-5 minutes it took you to read this post, almost ninety died of preventable diseases .
