New City. New Light. – Day 8

Step Praise
Day 4 Have you ever been so wrapped up in the destination that you forget to notice the way in which you got there? Went right up the steps on your way to the stage and paid no attention to the steps as you climbed over them? Interesting is that for most of our lives,…
