It’s all there. It just needs to be worked out. One of the most frustrating words in the English language is ‘potential’. Hours and hours are devoted to what could be. You see someone, you come across a group of people, you observe a situation and you have a sense of what could happen. You […]
Read More Journeyman Journal: Work It OutJesus the Son of the Living God recognised there were times for full on intensive work serving others and the need for intimate time away with the Father.
