Quix, to be honest with you, you scare me. I’m your intention aren’t evil, but I chose to focus on God’s love and try to be the best person I can be in God’s eyes - not yours. I am taught to see Jesus in everyone. You make it hard for me to do that. Please don’t ping me unless you can act like a brother in Christ. Many prayers for all of us.

I have a lot of confidence that down the road—for ALL THOSE EARNESTLY SEEKING GOD ALONE FIRST AND FOREMOST . . .
anything I’ve said will either be fruitful or fall by the wayside as useless chaff. Thankfully, God has been faithful to show a lot of GOOD fruit from such, as unbelievable as that may be.
But HE HAS TO DO IT in the hearts and minds concerned.
In the natural man . . . I’m a screaching creature in the desert—outrageously annoying or worse.
Thankfully, the foolishness of God is wiser than the wisdom of man.
