Really, It Wasn’t My Fault!

Photo from Morguefile Without the rancor I felt at my driving being criticized, I reminded my dear one that I wasn't the one at fault For this debacle that we found ourselves in right now, But he took my righteous anger with a grain of salt.

Our Shelter in Difficult Times: Sunday Devotion #7

Isaiah 4:5-6 (NLT): Then the Lord will provide shade for Mount Zion and all who assemble there.
