From Outsider to Insider
Don’t forget that you Gentiles used to be outsiders. ~Ephesians 2:11 NLT Sometimes, we must live without others’ acceptance. We can’t move from outsider to insider.

The Fruit of Kindness
“Would you be so kind as to give us a drink of water from your well?” Someone needed the fruit of kindness. My mother passed down a story told by her grandmother, who grew up on a farm located on a dusty, rural road.
