You’re In My Thoughts…As I Clear My Mind

Peace
I had to turn off the news this morning. It's just bad news and negative things one after the other. And then I have other things that are heavy on my mind. But as I was having my quiet time later in the morning, I was led to John 16:33. (Jesus said) "I have told...
