I got a mental picture of that as I read. It was heavy.<BR/><BR/>Most folks today don't have a clue about persecution let alone affliction. They need only to look to the hardships of missionaries today. The ones we don't see in the news. The ones tortured and murdered for their stand.<BR/><BR/>Afflicted, yes they suffer much more than living in poverty and without modern helps. Many suffer malaria, plague, and even complications to common ailments found here in the states. A diabetic on the field has much to be concerned about.<BR/><BR/>I feel a sermon coming on,... better quit now.Sista Calahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08490376459710128024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16790134.post-15666907929669553522006-12-01T12:43:00.000-05:002006-12-01T12:43:00.000-05:00Unfortunately Craver, I am suffering the afflictio...Unfortunately Craver, I am suffering the <i>affliction</i> of eighty degree (farenheight, you canuks) sunny weather...oh well, it is a tough life here in Florida...<br /><br />Have fun friend, and yeah, I'd love to be there for a visit, as long as you do the shoveling...<br />;-)Even So...https://www.blogger.com/profile/14208866122431178938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16790134.post-19663340609748656802006-12-01T11:40:00.000-05:002006-12-01T11:40:00.000-05:00It's here!

At the moment, I'm a little sore from shovelling, but this stuff is great for snowball fights. It clumps real fast so you don't have to pack it hard, just scoop it up and lightly press your hands together to shape it... voila!<br /><br />The phone rang early this morning. An assistant manager called to say that the office was closed. After we unbury ourselves, and maybe after lunch, I think we'll go to a park and whip these frosty missiles around 'till somebody cries.

Not heaped on me, but mostly on people around me. I have recently had more than one conversation that has made me want to plop down on the floor and weep for the pain someone else is going through. (I didn't, though.)<br /><br />While I have been encouraging one person in particular to persevere, their pastor has given consent to break a major vow. I wish that by prayer I could make sure they're strengthened to stay on course and do the right thing.<br /><br />BTW, I've gone beta.Craver Viihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12882284402568264182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16790134.post-78907655506711300082006-11-30T13:31:00.000-05:002006-11-30T13:31:00.000-05:00Thank you.
