The Gift of Choosing
It’s what we all want, isn’t it? To have our cake and eat it too. We want to have one foot in the world and one foot in Heaven, but we simply cannot. We can’t serve two Gods. Sin leads to consequences and pain; we know this as Christians. This isn’t “punishment” but a “reaping”…
