God Promises To Forgive

Recently my favorite Miss Universe contest finalist was asked the question “what was the one big mistake that you did in your life, and what did you do to make it right?” If I had been asked that same question, I would have had to request a box of Kleenex tissues, a sheet of paper and extra time to answer.

What about my Heavenly contract? No plans for change, never, no never! 1. Hebrews 13:8; 2; Malachi 3:6 Photo – old phone
