Excellent, Carol! You put this topic in the context of where we ALL are in our followership of Christ RIGHT NOW (even though we are all at our personally different "places" in our personally different journeys) by framing it within the issues and events of today.  Reading, I feel my heart swelling with confirmation..."This one...yes, she 'gets it'!"  Our heavenly Father is pleased with you...I know He is. Can't wait to hear more from you.
