Brings them right in front. You show us how one might go about it. As the Lord did, or does. I have to think He suffers so much watching you suffer, which to Him is His sons and daughters suffering. I’m sure you know that you don’t endure only for you. I hope I remember this.<br />Blessings, Ben.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10589423819039764711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2127590045913020385.post-25305739781891240892010-02-23T13:41:21.315-08:002010-02-23T13:41:21.315-08:00Ha!
