Imposter!
2 Corinthians 6:4-10 ESV "...but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: by great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger; by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, the Holy...
Right In the Gut
I had a post all lined up as a draft, but I got on to Post Secret and this got me in tears: I want to say to the person who sent this, You are able to help.You will need help, to help the one you love, but you are able. If you fight, and you try, and you love deeper...
