Thank you for your comment, Ted. I am touched by it. I do believe there will be surprises when we meet our Maker after this life is over and we hear His take on how we have spent our time here. A prayer of mine since early in life has been that I can attain to all that God saw I could become at the moment of my conception. Today I am working on growth in some of these “fruits of the Spirit” recorded in Galatians 5: 22-25 — love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, kindness goodness, faithfulness and self-control. (Sometimes the last one is the hardest.)
