As I was praying this morning and being quite irritated that the devil is still up to his tricks of saying to the Father, who knows ALL things, the things we do each day that are incriminating against us. Can you hear the glee in the devil’s voice as he reiterates them? Stop for just […]
Let me ask you a question… are you ‘happy’ (your definition), pleased with you and who you are becoming? Is your becoming constantly (again, your definition) growing in understanding? “Do not turn away from her (Wisdom) and she will guard and protect you; Love her, and she will watch over you. The beginning of wisdom
Closed… perhaps a definition wouldn’t go amiss. In this context (and yes, I know I haven’t provided a context – I will) – this is more of a: if you aren’t defining words, especially big words, how I learned and understood them and it’s contrary to what you are saying – then you’re wrong! Context:
