Thanks for your words of encouragement this morning. I won't give up. I'll persist and keep writing and keep getting better at it. God bless you. BJB. J.

If we think we're better, we can easily become puffed up and self confident. If we think we're less, it's just as you said...that we're saying God didn't do a good when He made us. <br /><br />Our job is to use the gifts and talents and callings He placed in us for His glory to the best of our abilities. Beyond that is all His responsibility.<br /><br />Thank you for the reminder today. Have a blessed day!Vonda Skeltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15709374938210704402noreply@blogger.com
