Hmmmmmmmm..........
Sister Lisa,
Seems, to me at least, that #7 and #8 are the most difficult of them all for most, including me. As long as we are tabernacles in these earthern vessels we must daily confront every conceivable tactic the enemy can devise and place in our paths, huh? Thank God for the ever-abiding presence of the Holy Ghost. Without Him I would surely fail!
Regards, PaPaDon
