Will you choose Jesus today?

I am in the middle of teaching a Bible study to the women at my church. We are studying the life of two sisters named Mary and Martha.

Brilliant Encouragement from Dr. Suess
by sue a allen
One of my favorite Dr. Suess books of all times is “Oh, the Places You’ll Go.” I love the whimsy. The inspiration. The humor. But most of all, I appreciate his candid outlook on life. You see, this book was written in 1990 and is the very last written piece before Dr. Suess passed away the following year.
