RE: A Merry Heart
I'll be brutally honoust with you, ZephThree. I need prayer
for this one. It's difiicult so far for me to have a merry heart when
devastating things happen like divorce, betrayal, rejection, back stabbing, loss of a child or a major figure in your life. GOD KNOWS I have not mastered the "merry" heart. Will you pray that I will be able to have a "merry" even in the midst of betrayal and loss of a family member or friend? Thank you.
