Bible Note: I still have questions. I'm afraid that your answer didn't help me much. I am nevertheless grateful that you took the time from your day to try to help me. That is a sincere gratitude, I'm not at all being sarcastic (not being able to see my face it's easy to mistake my meaning). I am also grateful for the prayers. I'm trying to understand, I really am. I am mindful though that there are some things that I'll have to take on faith. There are some things that I'm just not going to understand and that's OK too. Maybe you have a deeper insight into this area than I do at this point. That's OK with me too. I'll just keep doing my best, reading the Bible and praying. If I never understand the truth then that's OK too, it will be God's will because I'll keep praying for wisdom |
