Saturday's was relieving. Thank you.

All are. How long have you studied scripture?

Don't you compile these verses freely, yourself, as in taking them strait from scripture and placing them here in the fashion of your choosing? I just ask because of the elequence of which it is done. Every time I read it, it opens my eyes anew, to a different perspective or to a different depth.

I am noone. Regardless, I commend you.
Thanks again. I hope you continue.
