Wages

I underline many verses in my Bible, but occasionally a chapter will jump out at me. It is these times when I circle the chapter number instead of marking all the verses. Job 14 is one such chapter. The first and second verses are full of meaning that strikes me in ways I cannot begin … Continue reading Wages
