What Happened? 1/29/2006

it off from the start. We had so much in common and talked
EVERY day even if it was to say have a blessed day before we

I absolutely loved that. I thought finally a man who shows
leadership and won't look to me to be ...

How Much Do You Trust Your Heavenly Father? 1/28/2006
Sometimes I wonder how much I truly trust God? I look at my
grandchildren and they run around happy go lucky. They

need.

either when I look at the ...

we tell a story so as not to hurt others feelings.

Don't wait until the hour of battle 1/20/2006
The reason why many fail in battle is because they wait until
the hour of battle. The reason why others succeed is because
they have gained their victory on their knees long before
the battle came...Anticipate your battles; fight them
on your knees before temptation comes, and you will always
have victory.

a merry jingle when the jar was almost empty.

Then, the tones gradually muted to a dull thud as the jar
