More than ever I feel the need of having Thee close to me.
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities; for when I am weak, then I am strong.
Corinthians 12:7-10

How good to be sad........
....after Left Footer's 'How nice to be nice'......(a long way after)
Don't be so modest, Richard:) It's not doggerel or a pale imitation, but excellent. If it falls short of mine, it does so only in bitterness and nastiness, which you never display, and I do too often.
How good to be the winners In the battle fought for sinners To be given secure hope like a mountain climber's rope that stop's him from falling when the world starts calling
(or in the mountaineers case, he looks down and the ground starts spinning, and he gets dizzy and let's go. You get my drift anyway)!
