Good point Duane. Yeah its usually the one that you want to help the most
that needs the most help. A kind word of praise goes a long way. Its hard to
do-goes against everything we know or feel.
Our first reaction is to stomp and ask questions later.
Sometimes I fell too tired to even stomp. I step back and let them run wild
trying to collect steam to get their attention and move forward.
Getting old ain't fun in that respect. The spirit is willing but the flesh
is weak!!
Bob Simons

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD,
"plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give
you hope and a future. Jer. 29:11
