:Hello! Hope & pray you all are doing well! It's been quite a while since I've seen you all, but I've kept up with the board and prayed for the prayer requests here, and asked Pastor Steve if it would be ok if I posted here and he said yes, so here I am :O)
:I read something interesting and thought I'd share it:
: If a man only sees popularity, he becomes a mirror, reflecting whatever needs to be reflected to gain acceptance. If a man only sees power, he becomes a wolf, prowling, hunting and stalking the elusive game. Recognition is his prey, and people are his prizes. His quest is endless. If a man only sees pleasure, he becomes a carnival thrill-seeker, alive ony in bright lights, wild rides and entertainment. Seekers of popularity, power and pleasure. The end result is the same = painful unfulfillment. Only in seeing his Maker does a man catch a glimpse of what he was intended to be. In seeing Jesus, man sees his Source.
:With His Peace,
:Carol
