Reflect
"If we really believe the kingdom is God’s, we will obey Him and surrender to Him as King. We will trust He is in control of all events in this world, as well as those of our own personal worlds. We will proclaim His kingdom, His reign, and His rule in every way possible." —Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth1
