"Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in thine power to do it." Proverbs 3:27 We tend to think of this in terms of financial help and "works" but have you ever thought about it as in spiritual help? Helping one another through their trials, sorrows, and troubles? Helping …

COUNTING WRONG
My favorite all time quote is from Ronald Reagan in response to Muammar Qaddafi's far out plans of taking on America, "He counted on America to be passive and he counted wrong".
