Romans 12:2: “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Prior to writing this I have just been watching Russell Grant and Tommy Robinson talking about the Muslimification of this country, 'Great' Britain. It really is worth the...
I wrote to my friend, this is the day that the Lord hath made, rejoice and be glad in it Today is a 'first' in that I'm going to include material from a meeting that my partner Francoise has experienced when she went for a check-up with her damaged wrist this morning.
