Always pray to have eyes that see the best in people, a heart that forgives the worst, a mind that forgets the bad and a spirit that never loses faith. We are not given a good life or a bad. We are given a life. It’s up to us to make it a good or bad. Stand Firm in the Lord, not man. Philippians 4:1 God’s Blessing to All. (Favorite verse of his mother, Martha.) She loved her only son dearly.
