ENCOURAGEMENT

     I left you yesterday, on my post (ALL..God cares about it ALL), with a thought about encouragement. I wrote, Everyone needs it..and everyone can provide it..but the best kind comes from God alone! I studied up on encouragement in my Bible this morning. I want to share with you what I learned...and I would like to …

Well Done….

                                               When I am gone....how will I be remembered?? When my time on this earth is done, what legacy will I leave behind?
