Friday, 3rd September 2010

God told Abram: 'Leave your country, your family, and your father's home for a land that I will show you. - I'll make you a great nation and bless you. I'll make you famous; you'll be a blessing. I'll bless those who bless you; those who curse you I'll curse. All the families of the Earth will be blessed through you.' Genesis 12:1-3 The Message [MSG]
