Greater Things Have Yet to Come

When we look at our present circumstances and our current difficulties, we may give in to hopelessness. This week, Ptr. Michael Cariño invites us to look beyond today’s discouragement to a greater future. The King is on His way and His reign will make today’s struggles all worth it.
