"'Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says:

     Do not harden your hearts....'" (Hbr 3:7, 3:8, NKJV)

Thanks to

for the above biblical quotation. 
 
 
What will you do if today you hear God's voice? Will you become more responsible, more accountable? Will you try to find out what your true purpose is in life? Will you learn all that you can about the presidential candidates, so that you will be able to cast an intelligent and informed vote? Now is the time, not tomorrow. Do not put it off for another day.
