The “eyes” have it!
By Bob Perks

.

 I can look at you and know the truth. I can see it in your eyes. Blue eyes, brown, whatever they are, they speak to me before you do.

quickly than a pouty expression.
But love, in its truest form, is greater than feelings. It is as much
a decision as it is a feeling.
Love is what Mr. and Mrs. Strauss shared. Mrs. Isadore Strauss was one
of the few first class women passengers to go down with the Titanic in

ONE NATION UNDER GOD by fantartsy JJ (Infanticipating)

II Chronicles 7:14

I remember reading about the children of Israel who turned from God time and time again, only to realize their mistake and pray for forgiveness. Each time, God would forgive them and they would walk with him for a time. So, I am going to ask you to join me in praying for our nation every day.
