Love Endures All Things…hmm?
5Open rebuke is better than love concealed. 6Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful. (Proverbs 27:5-6) It is better to have people in your circle that are more loyal to GOD and what pleases Him than those willing to compromise what they believe is right to please you.

The dream that motivated Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a vision that he referred to as the beloved community.

Resting Confidently in the Spirit
