Bible Note: Aixen7z4, yours is a truly a tender and heart warming profile, but compared to yourself; I am as the beggar at the gate. You have the upbringing. I only have the meager necessities. It is my desire to spread what little I have, for like yourself, what I have is greater than the greatest of worldly riches. Yours appears to be a gift of eloquence. Mine is a simple gift of exhortation. One I am still in the process of perfecting. Once perfected, I am sure all will admire my gift as they do yours. The only problem is that by that time neither of our gifts will be necessary, for the race will have been run and our team will have crossed the finish line in Glory. Until then, all I have is what I have. And though I will continue to strive for perfection, I will be content, for I know that He is still working on me. Lovingly in Christ George |
