The Tower of Babel symbolizes for all time the foolishness of leaving God out of our thoughts and plans.

If we are to be successful with God, we must not allow ourselves to let Him become an afterthought.
As we come to the end of this work week, the economy is on our mind. Jesus said, "Put God's work first and do what he wants. .. Don't worry about tomorrow. It will take care of itself. You have enough to worry about today”
