Let me confess: It takes great restraint not to put exclamation points after every sentence! See! Timing is so crucial, and “As for God, His way is perfect” (Ps 18:30).

CHRIST the LORD of GLORY (1 Cor 2:8). Andrew Welwood, a young Scot, fled persecution to London, but there succumbed to tuberculosis. Before he headed Home, he left a book of personal letters titled A Glimpse of Glory. Here are some samples: “Death has a terrible face to those who place all their happiness in […]
