Yes, power is gained when one see how others bear up under a load and then make it. That idea brings 2 scripture passages to my memory:
we are o
2 Corinthians 1:3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; 4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
(We are to comfort others as we have been comforted. Your wife is a very practical comforter as she offers a computer. That act of kindness reminds me of my sister who knows just what to do when I am in need without me even asking. Sometimes I think she is an angel.)
and this passage:
Galatians 1:2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
Burdens are easier when someone comes along side. Of course we still bear the brunt of it, but the load is lighter knowing someone else cares, and there are also those who are gifted in offering practical help.
OK we are off to piano lessons. My oldest is also considering the trombone as his band instrument, or he may expand his piano talent. "Time will tell." A short phrase offered to bear by Joe in the vast abyss.
You should have the files in your mail. I saw some things on the DP last week about people writing books and recommending certain services. Did you see any of that information? I have been so busy I have not been able to communicate well to you. I was also feeling abit bad about taking so long to edit and seeing another person already offering (on a DP post) their book as a free download.
