FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR THE CROSS!
FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR THE CROSS. I know and I believe that there is no insignificant detail in the bible but honestly I struggle to read through some passages. Is there anyone else who feels that way?

LET GOD LIFT YOU UP! As a Yoruba native speaker, I find it exciting to praise and extol Jesus in my native language.

The event was marked by a stunning, breath taking, water extravaganza which being the main attraction of this development would very easily compete with the likes of such water displays in Middle Eastern tourist attractions like Dubai. It was a real spectacle
