The journey on the boulevard of broken dreams is challenging and encouraging! Yesterday, I was challenged by Cristi’s sermon with regards to my attitude as worshipper. David was first concerned about the fact that Goliath insulted God and that’s why he reacted. I think I need to work on that because I’d like to have such a passion for God’s glory and His name!
