Dear Roger,as I read your note I was reminded of Ecclesiastes12:13 Now all has been heard;hear is the conclusion of the matter:Fear God and keep his commandments,for this is thewhole duty of man.When I study this scripture and maditate on it,I am always comforted to know that God is faithfull to those who seek Him in truth.We also can look at the prayer that Jesus gave in John17:20 for all believers and recieve much peace and joy to know that we follow and obey a Savior that prays for us to the almighty Father so that we might be saved.Peace to you! rpvzgc | ||||||
