My Dad ran a bus ministry. He had many faults but he would get up at the crack of dawn to go door to door asking parents if their kids could come to church and learn about Jesus.
If there is one thing I look back on and respect him for that is it.
It made a difference and his reward was waiting.
We all ask "Is it getting worse or do we just notice it more", but regardless, it is frightening. I do know He hardens our hearts when we turn our backs on Him. Even more reason to hold on to Him and His Word even tighter. So many are saying these are the birth pangs that He told us would come.
