A daily walk in faith, hope and love
A number of questions came to mind as I read this chapter in the book of Daniel, and I invite you to ponder on those same questions: 1.

Among many other things, abuse and misuse are the product of the absence of understanding, especially of the true purpose of anything.

Reference text: Luke 20:27-40 Even as you read this text, do you notice the patterns on your phone? The location of the clock and battery percentage or the colours on the app you currently using?
