I mentioned Jesus Christ. Beware of terminology taking the focus off of the Person. <I>Jesus</I> will be sitting at the right hand of God the Father, not the cross :-)<BR/><BR/>Um, *searching for more compliments*...your blogging is to quality like Ken's salsa is to storebought salsa. (Much hotter and runnier?? Hmm, this isn't working...) Oh well.

I've heard of him, but never read his literature.

They sound more like quotes from Cyrano D'Bergerac or something.<BR/><BR/>"I can but pace my floor and cry for a distraction." That's good writing. But perhaps I think so because I've done almost the same thing, though for different reasons. Regardless, good job!<BR/><BR/>And yep, God works on us even through deeply hard, comfortless times. e.g. eternity...<BR/><BR/>So yeah, God's glory is bigger than our pain. But that glory is inexorably tied up with our LASTING, TRUE, SATISFYING good. Just look at Jesus Christ :-)Clear Ambassadorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14634693825983654731noreply@blogger.com
