BET has caught the Christian reality TV bug! The Sheards is the lastest reality show based on Christians and is proving to be a hit for the network.

(https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/primer/basics/dna) DNA determines our height, weight, eye color, hair color, and even our personalities. DNA is the essence of who we are and we do not have the power to control our genetic makeup (though we try…) Now, what does DNA have to do with this devotional? I’m glad you asked… David, former king of Israel and a man after God’s own heart, informs us in Psalm 51:5 that as humans, we were shaped or formed in iniquity or wickedness and conceived in sin (immorality, transgression, or evil).
