That’s the thing isn’t it, to be a living epistle. May we learn to let our lights shine so others may see our good works and glorify God. I’ve been guilty of trying to hide mine under a bushel, a sort of false humility I think. I’m repenting of that though. I thought if those without saw my shortcomings it would bring shame to the kingdom. I’m learning though that they can see I’m clearly human, with faults & problems, but there’s something I’ve got that they need, the love of God dwelling in my heart and goodwill towards them. I’m a slow learner but God never gives up on me.

That's some heavy duty wisdom, God has given you there MitziRene, I don't think King Solomon himself could have put any better :^)

May the Lord richly bless you.

Ditto, and thank God that He DOESN’T give up on us!
