God's Word
Bible Pledge: This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do. God created me. God put me here. God has a purpose for my life. And, God is empowering me to fulfill His Purpose. Today I will receive the incorruptible, indestructible, ever-living seed of the Word of God and I will never be the same.
