Bible Note: Dear Mr. RC, Thank you for sharing your story with us. You have had a long life and a lot of trials with a lot of disappointments. I have been reading a book by Kay Arthur called "As Silver Refined". In it I have learned that the Lord uses these disappointments to refine us as silver and make us more like our Lord. I know you are going through chemo and I am so encouraged that you have so much passion for your beliefs in spite of your hardships. I am also studying Hebrews and have learned how I am not to get overly concerned about straightening out this world and other people and how I am to rest in the Lord because He is in total control. I hope I have not offended you because I have a different view of Revelation. I have always been taught to respect my elders. When I read your story, I am so sorry that this happened to you. It was wrong and it should not have happened. Please find it in your heart to forgive. You will rest so much better if you do. I want you to have peace in this. Thank you for your perseverance. Please know that we are one in Christ. Many blessings - Val |
