This father is our provider and more than likely it is all the things we have picked up that he has not given that create many difficulties in our lives.<br><br>Freedom is so often sacrificed for comforts and the lie that these comforts make us more secure.Kenthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14628311071875771935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-47875357803713757062008-03-16T11:49:00.000+11:002008-03-16T11:49:00.000+11:00Yes, it feels freeing definitely.

I've meant to read both of them. Actually, I also want to read a biography about Gandhi (the movie was great but it was definitely sanitised, Hollywoodised - for example they left out how he wasn't the world's greatest husband and painted him to be wonderful and amazing to all). I also want to get something on St Francis as well.<br><br>Mmmm, books :)Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-27448695065106681792008-03-16T12:06:00.000+11:002008-03-16T12:06:00.000+11:00Wow you don't pray big prayers or anything, do...Wow you don't pray big prayers or anything, do ya?

Because I did pray that and have spent the last 3 years dealing with the aftermath. Which is good overall. I took the red pill. <br><br>Now I feel like moving on from here and want to pray it again, but am afraid of what they will have to do to get me there.

I'm sure they don't feel sad about it. They know how long it's gonna take for us to get to where we need to go (more Shackisms coming in here :)<br><br>I love your use of "them" :)Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.com
