Hi Compassion, You know, I have had other BL friends tell me almost exactly the same thing. To wait upon the Lord, and let Him provide in this situation. And that is what I am going to do. There certainly are times in this life when it is painfull or seemingly unfair, but that is one of the biggest reasons I cherish my faith in the Lord so much, i think. Without this faith (which needs some big-time encouragement some times...), I don't know if I could "make it" in this life. But I Praise God (!) that I DO have His Spirit living within me, and that Jesus is Lord in my life. AND that I have so many friends, brothers and sisters, in the Lord! Thank you, Compassion and Mark (and everyone)! Love, Chris |
