amen Paul; amazing how Jesus can become the most wonderful relationship a human can have. We become more "That which we meditate upon," which is what Saint Paul (!) preached. HAVE THIS MIND THAT WAS IN CHRIST JESUS

Thanks you fine poets and philosophers, for watching me on YOUtube.com: JED PARYERS. Mild exhortation, not fire & brimstone, or making folks feel less than the Creator made them to be. Shine, for HE thinks you are his other Masterpiece. Day6
