Keeping It Simple

Let’s Keep It Simple! Shall we?

Ever heard of the phrase, “Keep It Simple”? I have! It’s actually a common phrase in the tech field. According to a friend, it’s also a common maxim in Engineering.

With God, “Never Say Never!” Seven years ago, while attending a church in Phoenix, Arizona, I first learned about “spiritual gifts”, special gifts or talents given by the Holy Spirit to believers in Christ to serve or minister to one another. Many are mentioned in the Bible such as prophesying, giving, serving, encouraging, teaching, etc. (See Rom. 12, Ephesians 4, 1 Cor. 12-14). Continue reading “Never Say Never” →
