Gilbo, your candor is a lesson for all of us. I have a list of people I pray for, and you are now on it. I could use some prayers myself.

SJB, Gilbo? You are both on my prayer list, you can be sure of that, SJB you were in my prayers when none of us were sure if you would ever return to FR. The fact that you did and are with us today testifies to God's Mercy.

Brother Gilbo?

All that comes to me at this time to say to you my FRiend, is that "His Grace is sufficient for thee". Keep fighting that good fight.

"His Grace is sufficient for thee".

AMEN Brothers...

we are all fallible humans and all have our demons, some are more obvious and looked upon by 'the world' with a stronger lens, but God has PERFECT vision into the heart and uses all those maladies for His Good Will...

every drop of alc I consumed was necessary [as was a good chunk of my 'other 'idols'] to forge me into a tool for spreading of the Gospel of Jesus Christ... the fact that i percieved life in the world as 'hell on earth' thru imperfect lenses, and was then given Grace to go forward in Truth, is a Blessing indeed...

too many sit in the pews on Sunday, w/o a clue as to what they have to be thankful for...

Blessings and Prayers to all you guys and all in yer compounds...active repentence and walking in the Spirit will be much needed in the road ahead, and willingness to do what HE wants done, our wills be damned...
