We should pray for wisdom to present the truth without hurting ... it's perfectly possible, if only we'd try !!

"you give it [to them], you don't take it!" this has been the credo of a failing system - and change, if at all, is light years away.

that's tough love, need no apologies.

I like He is the potter and we are the clay. He chastens the ones he loves,but he causes all things to come together for his purposes.

(footnote) I'm not confusing 2 verses, but I'm making a point about how we question what we find ourselves in sometimes and ultimatley when we look back, I've always seen that God had a "better" plan than I did for my own life. How about ya'll? or for northern folks, How about yuse?
