Welcome to From Doc’s Desk, where we talk about faith, life, leadership and occasionally a few things we’re probably not supposed to talk about!
“Even as I have seen, Those who plow iniquity, And sow trouble reap the same.” (Job 4:8) Our hearts are a spiritual production center, and the seeds we sow will grow. There is work going on inside of us. The Bible says “as a man thinketh in his heart so is he . . .” […]
