Christian Living
We are thinking about ‘God Is Our Source’. God is the beginning and the end, the Alpha and Omega. Everything good came from God, is of God, and for God. We can use the resources that God has supplied to make the world around us a better place. God wants us to use all we have with thankfulness and wisdom.
