Allow me to thank both you and Tenac, allows me to know that I ain't the only one struggling daily........Reckon it is as Paul explains, (my words here)---we all fall very short, and we just don't get it straight until we get to heaven, then God makes us righteous. Can't exactly recall if that is from Romans 1 or 1st Corinthians 15. Every time this thought enters I always think go the thief on the cross who's said "Lord remember me when You come into your kingdom".----This guy didn't have time to be baptized, never tithed, did not do good works, did not belong to a church-----he just knew he needed divine grace, forgiveness----he repented in his own way-----Jesus said he would be in paradise which him-------I think this I in Luke maybe around chap 23 (around the cruixfiction) or somewhere close by. I am not suggesting that I or anyone else wait until our last breath.....but Jesus is always right there
GOD BLESS
