Be An Angel Today And Save A Soul For ChristBefore Sodom reached its dismal end, the Lord sent his angels to seek out people and save them. The angels didn’t think twice about going into the sin filled city to look for people they could rescue. Sodom was a den of thieves, murderers, harlots and adulterers, but the angels moved among them and did whatever they could to save souls.

Blessings On Your PalmsDo you know that what is in your hand is a source of blessing to your life and those who are at your immediate environment? Your life will be blessed by it.
