HE ARRIVED THIS MORNING, WE HAD PRAYER; SPENT SOME TIME JUST TALKING,
AND HE HELD ME FOR A WHILE BECAUSE I WAS HAVING A BAD MORNING. THEN, HE
WAS ON HIS WAY TO YOUR PLACE.







When He gets to your PC, escort Him to the next stop. Please don't
allow Him to sleep on your PC. The message He is carrying is very
important and needs to go round. May God bless you as you do this! AMEN.
