Sign Up TodayAll have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. - Romans 3:23 (NIV)
When my daughter was two or three years old, she threw the normal tantrums of a child that age. When she got into trouble, she would start crying and loudly repeating, “I want to be good.” I was intrigued by her response.Paul wrote to the Romans about the same problem....
With God’s help, I can “be good.”
