What we have learned today about color, God just considers it the "outer covering," and is more concerned with the "inter covering" (my words) of our bodies. Doesn't that tell us what we are to believe, behave and act upon? Shouldn't we be more concerned with colors that will help us maintain and get to Heaven that what is on the outside of a person's body?

Let's all of us, red, yellow, black and white live by the Bible so we can bring forth a healing that can and will be felt world wide.

Did you know?:
A black man helped Jesus carry His Cross
The first saved Gentile was a Roman Soldier

God's blessings to each of you,
