When I think of the sacrifice that Jesus made for me I can't help but breakout into tears. Words perhaps don't describe the full extent of His suffering, but one can only imagine the agony and pain He must've endured. He was beaten, bruised, whipped, and crushed so that we wouldn't have to be. Sent… Continue reading Good Friday

No Payment Needed (on my end)
