Than they say..Is JESUS real??? Is HE just a fairy tale like
all the others? Children TRUST us to tell the truth..after all THEY get taught not to tell lies (we teach them the differance between..'make-believe stories'
and truth). Its up to us to hold that standard FOR them until they decide for themselves..as each of us did ...and DO.

Blessings,
Billie

...my preacher calls what they do as...."the Valadation Dance"...(you are wrong..I'm right, I'll set you straight...)

Oh well. I expect this will be an annual thread here.
I agree.
