Mr."T" is so strikeing that it stopped me cold
as I channel surfed<G>
*JUST LIKE A PASSIONATE RANGERNETER-
He fired all his guns and shot off into space!<G>
He would start a thought and *quote Dr.Martin Luther King
then go off on a personal thought, get HOT- WORKED UP
and begin a fast rappid fire tumble of words!<G>
As he "bounced" off the wall I "got" what he was saying<G>
*The same God that healed the blind, raised the dead is
here today for you, if you call on him with faith!
*There is no place for "FEAR" in the heart of belever!
*God will use a donkey if he needs too!
It was GREAT!<G>
