It has never been a point of fear for me. Never. I think this is because it has always been presented to me - and subscribed to in my mind - in a very balanced way, bathed incredibly in the love of Christ.<br /><Shawn Bracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10603380405719498288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3601946653328882528.post-65508865805730702562011-11-11T21:43:27.647-05:002011-11-11T21:43:27.647-05:00P.P.S.
