To all of my Words To Live By readers, I want to take this time to thank each and everyone of you for your faithful reading of our blog over this past year.

I must tell you, I have really enjoyed doing this for your benefit even though it has been a labor, but one of love. It takes time of course for me to put the thoughts together to bring to the blog each and every day, but then I think of all of those who it has helped over the past year, people have been so encouraged by the blog, how could one ever put a price on this, it’s priceless!

My prayer today, this being the last day of the 2010 year, is that you will be blessed beyond measure in both your body and your family and all areas that affect your life.

May you have the blessings of God in your life and the wisdom to know without him nothing is possible.

Good bye 2010 - Hello 2011

Watch where you’re walking!

Stay far away from those that will try to mislead you or give you bad advice or counsel.

Avoid foolish so – called - wisdom from those that have NO insight and NO spiritual and godly direction. They will only cause you difficulty and misery. Let’s get some sound advice and wisdom from the Word of God. Remember! …Watch where you’re walking!

Psa 1:1  Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

Psa 1:2  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

Psa 1:3  And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Psa 1:4  The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

Psa 1:5  Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

Psa 1:6  For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

How good is your Aim?

• Col 3:2  Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

I remember hearing a story of a young man who kissed a girl on the chin and she immediately said to him, “Aim Higher!”

Did you ever really take notice that if we are not fully aware of what God desires for our lives we tend to miss the mark?  Think about the some of the things that you are spending valuable time and effort trying to achieve.

We never rise higher than our idea, so we must think differently, doesn’t that make sense?

We must strive to be a better Christian tomorrow than we are today;

• Setting giving above getting
• Morality above money
• Principle above popularity
• The Word above the world

It’s right for us to be content with what we have, not with what we want to get.

We need to ask ourselves the question, what are we aiming at? Is this the will of God for our lives?

Even a good marksman must adjust his sights.

Let’s Aim at the things that will make us better and bring Glory to God.

Praying for one another.

• Jam 5:16  Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Here we are at the end of the year in just a few more days, a New Year before us and a chance to do things different. A fresh start is always a welcome thing. The opportunity to start over is a blessing to all that will capture it.

This has been a year that I for one will appreciate having behind me, with all of the challenges that has come a fresh start is so inviting.

I will be spending the next few days in prayer for each of you, I know many of you have been dealing with health issues as well as many other things, but again, we have a fresh slate before us. This should even put you in a better frame of mind.

Let's do as the scripture says above, let's pray for one another! That we may be healed.  If you would like to send me an email letting me know that you will join me in prayer please do so.

I am trusting God for some great things in this New Year coming, not just for me, but for you also!

Not normal, Different!

• Psa 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

After coming through such a joyous holiday, people are now talking about getting back to normal, maybe that's not such a good place! I don't want to be like I use to be, I want to be different.


There's something about being different and letting God do a work within us that is ever changing, to be more like him, doing what he wants and allowing that light to shine through us like never before.

I choose to be different, isn't that something? he gives us the choice, what's yours?

The Christmas Guest <---Click Here.

I wanted a different version of this but the message is the same, Enjoy and Merry Christmas!



We wish you and your family a very

Merry Christmas!

Luk 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

Luk 2:12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

Luk 2:13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

Luk 2:14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Luk 2:15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

Luk 2:16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

Luk 2:17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

Luk 2:18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

Luk 2:19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

Luk 2:20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

Luk 2:21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

Christmas Eve. Day

Here we are the day of Christmas Eve. such a wonderful time of the year, a time to reflect on the real reason for this time.

Let us begin to gather within our thoughts, all of the good that this time brings, not only now but every day of the year, as we live for him and we remember that he lived but then also died for us.

• Mat 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

May this day be a day for you and I to think of his goodness towards us, as one fellow said, if you don't have Christmas in your heart, you'll never find it under a tree.

Enjoy your Christmas Eve Day!

A Spread like none other!

·        Luk 22:30  That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, …

Jesus has a table spread where the saints of God are fed, He invites His chosen people, Come and dine; With His manna He doth feed And he supplies our every need: O tis sweet to sup with Jesus all the time!

Come and dine, the Master calleth, Come and dine; You may feast at Jesus table all the time; He who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine, To the hungry calleth now, Come and dine.

Just imagine the table that Jesus will put before us as we draw near unto him! He knows our every care and he is so willing to provide for us.

Just think of how we want to provide for those who we love, don’t you know that God wants to make sure we have all that we need?

What a blessing to have that understanding, where we have no lack when we trust in the Lord; he is always waiting to meet our every need.

I don’t know just what you may have need of today but he does, my prayer is that whatever you lack today, he will be gracious unto you and give you your hearts desire.

Out of harm's way!

• Isa 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

Here's a verse that lends lots of hope and strength to those that are having difficult times, having our trust and confidence in the Lord is vital in the life of a child of God.

I know from experience that he is an ever present help in our times of trouble.

May you be blessed in great measure as you live for God and trust in him daily.

Victory Ahead!

• 1Co 13:7  Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place."

Why is it that so many times after we have been in the midst of the struggle we want to give up, when 99% of the time the victory is just around the corner?

If we are not careful we will let things get in the way and we will talk ourselves out of our victory, sometimes we will even let people talk us out of staying the course, even people that we love will often say things to make us feel like it’s time to give up.

Think about it! Why did you hold on for so long and now want to give in, does it really make sense?

Do you know what the acronym is for the letters P U S H? 

PRAY   UNTIL   SOMETHING   HAPPENS!

Rest if you must, but don’t quit, if you have been holding on there must be a good reason, it must be worth it, so just hang in there, the blessing is on it’s way! ...There's Victory Ahead!

The Reason for Everything!

• John 1:3  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Somebody one time said, that Jesus was the reason for the season, but I have to disagree to some extent.

Jesus is the reason for Everything!

I am glad that we can be thankful for him everyday of the year Not just during the Christmas season.

May you be blessed!

Friends!

• Jam 2:23  And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

Friends are very special, what a privilege to be called a friend of God.

A dear friend of mine told me one time, if you walk through this life and have enough true friends that you can count them on one hand, you are a rich man!

I must say, I agree, I have always held friendships very high and would never want to violate a friendship in any way!

A true friend is one that you can trust and never worry about disloyalty; you have the assurance that whatever you tell them is held in strict confidence, you have the feeling and understanding of trust, commitment, you know that whatever the case, they will always be there to help and never hinder, that is something that many times can be very rare.

I for one cherish true friendships! They are precious and few in this life.

What a feeling to know, that God is our Friend and he is always faithful.

May you be blessed in a wonderful way and have many friends in this life.

Against the wind!

• Phi 4:13  I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. 

I have often thought of that feeling of taking off in a plane, it's that time of commitment, when you're still on the ground, there is that sense of safety, but when you take to the sky, things at that very moment become very much different.

You are now given to a totally different set of rules and skills to depend on to get you back on the ground safely.

What a wonderful feeling to know that we have a God that cares about us and he gives us the guidance and the strength to conquer anything, if we will just commit ourselves to him.

I trust him! his track record speaks for itself, it's impeccable!!

Who's getting the credit?

Who Cares?

Gal 5:26Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

Did you ever notice how quick some people are as to who gets the praise for a particular task?

Why is it that many times you'll hear people say;

" I did this,       I did that,       I am the one,       look what I did!      I, I, I, "

In fact, some times they say ( I ) so much, you'd almost think they were a potato!  

But here's the real truth in the matter;

TEAM WORK!
Just think how much work could get done, if you really didn't care, WHO got the credit! ...hmmm!

Motivation Factor!

•  Col 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

 What is your Motivation Factor?

Ask yourself the question, what is it that really motivates me? Some people are motivated by the sports they enjoy, or perhaps some sort of other recreation like camping, fishing, hunting or maybe it’s just plain ole checkers.

What is it that you are longing to do? You just can’t wait until the next time you get to indulge in whatever it is.

Are you ever MOTIVATED by reading the Word of God, or getting to church and just can’t wait to hear what the Preacher is going to preach! How about the next opportunity to PRAY, does that excite you?  If not my friend, then you are just too hung up on the things of this world and you need to readjust your MOTIVATION FACTOR!

I was sitting here in my office this morning and I started thinking of this very thought, what is it the really gets me going, I must admit there are lots of things that I can think of doing that I really enjoy, and there is nothing wrong with having some pleasure out of these things, until it interferes with the most important thing, and that is our fellowship with the Almighty God.

You see, He wants our undivided attention, nothing to side track us, nothing to cause us to deviate from that which is most important, and that being him.

Here is a great analogy:  …and I must say that I’ve been guilty of this many times.

Do you know that it is RUDE and DISRESPECTFUL to be in a conversation with someone and talking with them face to face and to allow yourself to be distracted by someone or anything? TRUTH ANYHOW!!!

I must say, I know lots of people, and I have studied them over the years since I learned about this that I am telling you today.

Personally, I only know ( 1 - one ) man in this world, who is a very dear friend of mine, who is a world renowned artist and I have marveled at him in this light, I have observed him over the years, whenever you are speaking with him he has a way of never allowing himself to be distracted by anything while you are in conversation with him.

He looks you in the eye and never takes his eyes off of you; he makes you feel like you are the only person in the world!! I have even walked up to him when he was in conversation and tried to purposely get his attention, I remain without success.

I am saying all of this to just bare out the fact, that we must have the singleness of mind and heart when it comes to our communication with our God & Saviour.

We can’t allow ourselves to be pulled away by the cares of this life, we must have focus, and we must get our priorities in check.  Let’s work on our MOTIVATION FACTOR!

Let’s allow our attention to be on Jesus, even through this Christmas season we can get off course and forget what it’s really all about.

I know this is a sobering thought today, but one that is needful.

Let’s pray for one another, I want to be like the man I just told you about when it comes to being focused, and I am working on it daily, but I want to do better in all of these areas when it comes to ATTENTION SPAN.

25 Questions for Mary the Mother of Jesus!

I came across these several years ago and wanted to share them with my bloggers on Words to live by.

25 Questions for Mary the Mother of Jesus!

1. What was it like watching him pray?
2. How did he respond when he saw other kids giggling during the service at the synagogue?
3. When he saw a rainbow, did he ever mention a flood?
4. Did you ever feel awkward teaching him how he created the world?
5. When he saw a lamb being led to the slaughter, did he act differently?
6. Did you ever see him with a distant look on his face as if he were listening to someone you couldn't hear?
7. How did he act at funerals?
8. Did the thought ever occur to you that the God to whom you were praying was asleep under your own roof?
9. Did you ever try to count the stars with him....and succeed?
10. Did he ever come home with a black eye?

Never Changing!

• Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

Isn’t it something how people can change at the drop of a hat? Just let something get out of hand, a misunderstood word or look can make a very uneasy situation, almost without any warning at all.

People today live more on the edge than they do off, and this is where lots of family quarrels can get started.

I was talking with a young man the other day about this very thing and they described a very sad family situation that they were dealing with and we’ve all dealt with these at one time or another, but working through them is the key and keeping them high on the prayer list can be the answer in most cases, rebuking that old stubborn spirit that seems to get in the way.

What a joy knowing that God is a God that never changes, his word teaches us that he is always the same, today, yesterday & forever.

I pray that you and your friends and family build relationships that are never changing, strong & lasting. Reach out to those in your family and let them know that you care for them in a special way.

This time of year is great for putting broken relationships back together, but it takes the willingness on both sides. Give it a try, and see if it won’t work.

God will help you as you commit yourself to him and trust him for the thing that seems impossible.

Blessings to you!

Waiting, it’s not my cup of tea.

Did you ever you have to wait and wait for something and wonder if it would ever happen or take place? Sure, we all have!

Waiting is not an easy task; the unknown has a way of working on us and tearing at our nerves, causing us to have anxiety and the feeling of being left all alone in the midst of our trouble, situation or whatever it is that we are waiting on.

The Word of God teaches us to be anxious for NOTHING, but that within itself is not an easy thing.

I myself know this feeling very well, I have always been the kind of person that just likes to get things done and then go on to the next. I must admit I DON’T like to wait.

I have always, from a very young age, been the kind of person who has been very punctual, I don’t like for people to have to wait on me, and I don’t like waiting for others. I’ve often said, if you can spend the energy of what it takes being late, you can certainly spend that same energy and be on time. You’ll really need to think about that one!

I just like being early, on time, which has been a character of mine as I said, for many years.

 With all of that being said, there is a lesson to learn in waiting.

• Isa 40:31  But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

The word wait here does NOT mean sitting still; it actually means, to be busy or active doing something in the mean time. What does a waitress do in a restaurant? She waits on the tables, she serves the people, and this certainly shows that she is staying occupied during this waiting.

This is what God wants from us in our times of waiting on him to perform whatever it may be in our lives that we our desiring for him to do. Remember, God has perfect timing.

So! The next time you are waiting for God to answer a prayer for you, all in good time my friend, even those of us that have the reputation of always being on time and not liking the idea of having to wait, there is a way to do it, stay busy for the Lord.

A question deserves an answer, and they are both still the same today!

Someone had asked the question, I’m not a bad person why wouldn’t God accept me just like I am? here is my response.

• Rom 3:23  For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

Why is it that people look for the so called grey areas in life? Or, the not so bad kind of situations.

People tend to look for a way out, around or perhaps avoidance of many situations that are simply cut and dried, chiseled in stone if you will.

• The Bible says:   Mark 10:18  And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.

It’s so much better for a person to except their guilt, repent and move forward; is it really that simple? It’s just that simple!

Let’s look at it from another verse so we really get the full understanding;

• Act 2:37  Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?

• Act 2:38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

The Word lays it out there just so wonderfully, what a feeling of relief when you do it the right way, repentance is such a wonderful thing, try it and see.

Somebody said it like this: you can run but you can’t hide!

With him, is his Reward!

• Rev 22:12  And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

What shall be your reward?

Friend! He’s coming quickly, you just may not have time to make everything right then, you better do it NOW!

Don’t take a chance with Eternity, whatever your work has been here in this life, good or evil, you will give an account for all things, make things right while you have the opportunity.

He knows your every step!

Another Day!  What will it hold? Is that really the question? Or should it be more like this, I know God holds this day in his hands and all things are well and will be, according to his will and purpose.

One writer said it like this:

• Job 23:10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

What a comfort! just to know that God is attentive to every need that we have, and he knows where we are and what we are going through and dealing with every single day!

I trust him today for EVERYTHING! how about you?  We are so blessed to be able to stand on his promises.

Reaching out to folks! It's not that difficult.

This top verse I give to you is in the Amplified Version!   

• 2Ch 10:7They said, "If you will be a servant to this people, be considerate of their needs and respond with compassion, work things out with them, they'll end up doing anything for you."

• KJV. 2Ch 10:7
And they spake unto him, saying, If thou be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be thy servants for ever.

Did you ever set out to fulfill a goal but just couldn't seem to make the grade? Well! join the crowd.

I recently asked my blog readers to join me in a simple campaign to send out a few cards or a hand written note to someone they have not had contact with in a while and many have responded, all positive, but there are some that I just knew would jump on this and I have yet to hear back " COUNT ME IN! ".

Maybe we're just too busy! I am striving everyday to be whatever God would have me to be for whoever I come in contact with.  In particular, over the past week, I have found several occasions to be an encouragement to some folks, what a great feeling that is, when you know that you have been a blessing to someone.

Just yesterday, there was a sweet elderly lady that waited on me and my wife in a store, she had a wonderful smile on her face and you could just tell that she would be a pleasant individual to talk with, so I did. Here is what I said, ...Ma'am! that is a beautiful smile on your face, she responded to me, Yeah! and I'm keeping it! ...I knew what she meant by that, she was not going to be down she was going to keep on smiling.

SO!!! I turned a good situation into a better one, here's how. To be honest, I really didn't like her answer, "Yeah! and I'm keeping it!"  So I told her, You're not keeping it, You're Sharing it!!!!  She thought for just a moment and she got even more bubblier when I told her that.

Then I told her what I have said for years,     "We only get to keep, what we give away!"

She said thank you!!! for making me aware of that, I never thought of it that way!  You see! people are just waiting for us to touch their lives, how many lives can we touch between now and the end of this year. We'll talk about beyond later, what a witness to people if we can just touch their lives even if it's in a small way!

I know we're all busy, but let's share some joy with some folks and make a difference, would you help me reach my goal of getting out an encouraging word to someone with a card or a note? ...can you say "count me in?". I already have mine in the mail, getting ready to send some more.  Oh! by the way, these are NOT Christmas cards that I am sending, I'm letting folks know that I am praying for them and have a genuine concern for them! 

God Bless each and every one of you!

Who could dispute the goodness of God?

• Psa 23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

How could anyone ever dispute the goodness of our God? We have more than we need and in some cases, we have abundance.

Today, I have a Request for you.

First, I want to thank all of the Words To Live By readers

for all of your kind words concerning the blog,

Thank you! and many Blessings to you!

This is the Christmas season and the word teaches us that it is better to give than to receive, so I would like for us to do something that would really be an encouragement to some people in our lives.

• Gal 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

Over the next week, I would like for you to think about 3-5 people in your life that you have not had contact with for sometime and send them a hand written card / note or if you choose, give them a phone call and tell them that you had them on your heart and wanted to call ( personally, I think the card or note is more effective ) to let them know that you are praying for them. I can certainly think of several right off the top of my head that would appreciate a contact like this, you just never know what it will mean to them, but of course, you may just find out. 

• 1Jo 2:13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.

One more thing, if you are willing to do this, please drop me a note (email)

Just saying,  “Count me in!”

You may just make this season of giving more special

for someone than you could have imagined.

I look forward to your emails ~

Except Ye Repent!

Luke 13:5  I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

       There are lot of passages that I really enjoy reading, but I must say, the one I am using for today has been a real eye opener, if you will, and should be very sobering to the True Christian.

       You see, David leaves no room for Slippage, as you read through this today pay close attention to all of the key words that stand out to you:

       Let me give you an example: V:1  He begins to ask for mercy, what kind of mercy? Mercy with lovingkindness, when was the last time you showed that to someone? Most of the time if we're not careful, we have the attitude, to only give them what they have coming to them.

       I wouldn’t want what I should have coming to me for all of my failures, how about you? OH! that’s right, maybe you thought you’re God’s gift to mankind! …or not!  …Okay! Then he wants some tender mercy, but what is it that we say, OH! Give it to em’ God they deserve it! And then he wants his mistakes, failures, shortcomings, blotted out.

       V.2 Now he’s wanting a cleansing, from all of his ways of the past, yet if we are not careful, we try to hide things, like even God don’t know what we’ve done. Hmmm!

       V.3 Now he really comes clean, because he says,  I “ACKNOWLEDGE “ my transgressions, and you’ve seen all of my failures, and you know how I have been prone to stumbling.  Then he says, my SIN is ever before me, he's saying, if you don’t cleanse me I don’t stand a chance! ... in other words!

       Go Ahead CONTINUE:  As you read it, this will come alive to you! What a PRAYER, what an example he left for us.

Psa 51:1  Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.

Psa 51:2  Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

Psa 51:3  For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.

Psa 51:4  Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.

Psa 51:5  Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Psa 51:6  Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.

Psa 51:7  Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

Psa 51:8  Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.

Psa 51:9  Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

Psa 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Psa 51:11  Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

Psa 51:12  Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

Psa 51:13  Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

Psa 51:14  Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

Psa 51:15  O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.

Psa 51:16  For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.

Psa 51:17  The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Psa 51:18  Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.

Psa 51:19  Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

This prayer of David is more than just powerful; it’s the way to God’s heart, this is how we can get Gods attention, because by this kind of prayer, it’s the Body, Spirit and Soul Scan! …Trust me! The Modern Day Airports don’t have anything on the individual that prays like this, this is ALL revealing! Nothing being hid, isn’t that what this New Scan equipment is supposed to do, reveal all? So there is nothing hidden.

I could go on and on, but I must stop!  Read it, Live it, you’ll be different if you do.

Praying with YOU in mind,
