I agree with you. The boys like to beable to sound off kick rocks be
normal and have a good time. Bringing all this into a Salvation message
is where my heart is as well. The best times I can remember envolve real
life as it is lived with a Godly message from the heart.
It takes work to keep that emblem in balance. Even right now the Spirit
of God is moving on me to realize just how important each of those are.
I feel very strongly that if Jesus is indeed very pleased with what the
emblem stands for and would agree with all its points.
I would like to have the words to some of the fun ole songs. My heart is
in the Song service but my memory can't remember a song. I often lead
(my dad is a MC for a Blue Grass Band and plays rythum guitar and has
played for over 40 years, non-professionally but has been in lots of fox
hunts, street sings, radio, saturday night gatherings etc... . Funny
thing is other things I am a walking book ... but songs.... nota!
You are my sunshine my only sunshine. You make me happy.... Make up
takes up too much time your my little .... Jesus Jesus Jesus sweetest
name I know! Ok. that about taxed this feller.
Thanks guys and gals.
