One of the biggest impediments to faith--believing--is this desire we have to receive honor from one another.

It is a huge hindrance to faith.

Paul, who had every reason to have a super inflated ego, counted it but dung and pressed for the mark , the high calling in Christ Jesus.

There is something about a person who has spent many years in the Presence and Word of God, continually decreasing while Jesus increases.

There is a flavor and a quality in saints of this caliber that cannot be short-cut or mass produced.

Sister Falla is obviously a mother in Israel, and an example of what i am speaking of.

Amen again!

Bro. Coonskinner,

This is so humbling to me, Brother! If walls could talk, they could tell

lots of stories. Thank God, we are "becoming" like unto His glorious body".

Blessings,

Between Coon and Sis. Falla we have enough wisdom and godliness that we should just all hush and sit at their feet!!

[Coonskinner]

Renda, you are very kind, but I really don't belong in the same category with the precious mother in israel you have mentioned.

All I can say is AMEN.

My heart is moved.

Bro. Coonskinner, a reference off of the scripture you quoted is explained

in John 12:43, "For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of

God".

Brothers, Coonskinner, RevDWW, Freeatlast, and Sister Renda,

Thank you all for your kind words! I can scarcely take these humbling

words today! I have the flu and my emotions are wild! Please pray for me!

Blessings,
