Amen. If not for the Spirit of God we would be a lot worse off. The benefit of the family of God is that working together we can serve one another better. I’m more a healer of the wounded and needy than a warrior.
I know there is gentleness in you, but as you said, it’s not your best attribute. Together we are better.
Have a blessed day, Susan. 🩷🫂♥️🙌
