I have been often criticized and rejected because my viewpoint on life is found by many to be too narrow. Christ forewarned all those who would take up their cross and follow Him that this would be the reality. YESHUA forewarned us that the servant is not greater than the master, as we walk in...

Directing the Locomotion of Your Heart
