Dios nunca se da por vencido contigo es para los luchadores entre nosotros y para los ineptos que llevamos dentro. Para los que somos en parte santos y en parte sinvergüenzas.

No los hemos olvidado. Sin embargo, podríamos usar un curso de actualización sobre el plan perfecto de Dios para utilizar a personas imperfectas.
