Oooohhhhhhhhhh what a beautiful list... but it's more than a list; far above and beyond words.... It's all about the Presence and the Power of God... who is indeed Real...

I love this. I feel so peaceful. I'm reading about someone 'we' know.... I mean we are getting to know Him even more, and the beauty is that He knows each one of us more than we even know ourselves.

Thank you for sharing such a beautiful 'Gift' of Love...

Praise God! Thank you Healthy Hair... :grouphug2:
