PRESIDENT Bush, or whoever we disagree with politically here on blogs. either we say something cute and witty that is cutting and personal about them or we fail to give them the respect due them as our authorities that God himself has placed over us or as human beings with hurts and feelings of their own. I was deeply wounded in my conscience by your posting and moved to send out a few emails and posts of apologies in turn. <BR/><BR/>But at least I have (also through your post) the comfort of knowing that I am not (at least for today) contributing to the chaos and evil in the world in this way, and that I am still cool with my God in spite of how much I try to screw up that relationship as well.<BR/><BR/>thanks!Frank Sonnekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18119302543437442204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9048575444859487507.post-65515148184820349562007-12-07T21:52:00.000-05:002007-12-07T21:52:00.000-05:00Thanks for the encouraging words.Not sure why, but...Thanks for the encouraging words.<BR/><BR/>Not sure why, but Blogger didn't alert me (as it usually does) that there were comments posted.

Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you."Zaripesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06808883312056401171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9048575444859487507.post-34477803644271444152007-12-04T15:21:00.000-05:002007-12-04T15:21:00.000-05:00excellent site.The Lord´s Peace be with you!excellent site.<BR/><BR/>The Lord´s Peace be with you!Frank Sonnekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18119302543437442204noreply@blogger.com
