I'd like to add to that. Ears to hear, heart to accept. Meaning, you hear and you understand and you accept. Okay, now it sounds cheesy but I hope it makes sense. :blush:Quote:

Not to say I don't believe in a system of morals and absolute good and bad, but I fail to understand why people insist on making the leap from "presence of absolute good" to "presence of God."
I certainly agree. A right heart makes good channels of the ears.Quote:

The bond between a mother and her child precedes the child's deeper understanding of the mother.Quote:

Yes, that is what I would like to know as well. Although I had those feelings as a child, how do I know it wasn't just the same as playing with my dolls. And if you had that understanding, is it fair that kazillions don't? just wondering.
M'Lord I have missed you. Can we not have a thread once more of the merry woods and adventures just about you and your followers?. pleeeeeeeeeeeze.
It's all about the heart, that's what my sunday school teacher puts up on the board every sunday. It was the title of one of the lessons she gave us and she just started putting it up for every lesson.Quote:
