Find Healing In The Arms Of Jesus
This world will present you with temporary remedies – entertainment, money, possessions, achievements, and more. You will find yourself looking for answers on things that will immediately and temporarily bring you joy. Sometimes, people are tempted to find instant healing, and it destroys them in the end.
