Bible verse of the day
Hearing this, Jesus said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”Random Bible Verse
Though the fig tree does not budand there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
and no cattle in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
I will be joyful in God my Savior.Next verse!With image
