Happy Thanksgiving to you too, DRob4JC...
The kingdom of loving-kindness resides within each of us - reach for it:

John Unger cradles his 19-year-old dog Schoep to sleep every night in Lake Superior.
So, the buoyancy of the water can sooth his arthritic pain.



Happy Thanksgiving!

On reflection, i have seen more good things(just for the sake of being good) done in the flesh than i ever came close to do being a bible believer who claimed it was inspirational,inerrant and infallible( my story anyway).

There is much good in the flesh.

Those with blighted spirits and dark hearts cannot perceive it.

Jesus never wrote anything that I AM aware of?
Perhaps, you are confused by the perceptions of men?

I really do not need a book, although I am inspired by some of the literature.
And I don't succumb to the fear tactics of emotionalism? But thanks for your concern.

He saved my soul, O bless His name...Thank you Lord for your son Jesus Christ and the gift of eternal mercy!

Outside of God's grace and mercy mankind would not exist for one second.

Would we be in heaven or exactly like we were billions of years before we were born?
