They will not be defeated when they fight their enemies at the city gate.” -Psalms 127:1-5 NCV

It’s just taking up space in the garden.’ “The gardener answered, ‘Sir, give it one more chance. Leave it another year, and I’ll give it special attention and plenty of fertilizer. If we get figs next year, fine. If not, then you can cut it down. “ -Luke 13:6-9 NLT
