Amen. Thanks for the prayer. We are of the same mind. I posted my comment as a monoku and credited you as the inspiration.

Richard, what is a monoku? Isn't that like a type of haiku? Warm Regards, William

A man who judges another is at risk of not being forgiven.

Exactly, Richard! I love and accept everyone at face value until proven otherwise, and still, I will love him, I'm instructed to. I don't sit that high to make judgments, that's for a worldly person. I am in this world, true, but I am not of this world, but it's a life I must live for His purpose. I prayed for you as I wrote this reply. I am only a Christian, trapped in a catch-twenty-two world. So, I can only illuminate my kindness and compassion from an awesome God, that has a favored hand on me. So, God Bless you in every way possible and your needs be met before my own needs. I ask this in His Son's name Christ Jesus our Savoir.
