PURIFY MY HEART
Growing up a church girl, I was never a David fan. I flat out didn’t like Him. The unfaithful, the murderer. He already had 8 wives, yet he took the only thing His most loyal servant, Uriah treasured. Furthermore, Uriah was the man willing to die for Him who would not leave His side, but…
