Brother Anil, As a member of the body of Christ, when one member falls victim to the wiles of the devil, we all suffer. You are a pastor,  the devil will attack you first. Some scripters to pray about. Ephesians 6:11-24. Praying for you my Brother....Debra

Sad that you feel different today as if you have fallen out of the peace and grace. Know it is just a fleeting moment ! God will let you spring back to your former grace. My prayers..... dear brother

A heartfelt offering of the way of a kindhearted person. Sad that Love is always challenged by evil or fear. Thanks for sharing, Anil. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

Sad, I don't think times have changed much; there are so many today that still push people away. Good depth to this.
