>message...sheila: "perfect love casts out all fear..opp of love is fear..cannot have love w/o faith..love that casts out all fear..is a love that believes..question..what believe in ? ...what ? Who ? Nothing ? ..beliieve worst? Negative conclusions..love bears all things..hopes all things..believes the best..u have a choice..best or worst..I believe..paul says love believes best abt others..my husband wonderful man of god..visitor..hi how cani help u ..when dating..sheila..said go out to dinner..foothills..sheila...wait in car..don't know..believe the best..testing waters..comes back 2 bags..smells like chicken.turns on car...drives to top of hill..turnout..see below valley lights..gorgeous night..turned car off...lit candle..card..to sheila..mst beautifl gal in restaurant. ..I felt so good...but then I realized I was the only one in the restaurant..but I took it in the best way..he said later he meant..any restaurant..howard gardiner..harvard. studied brains [missed a moment as tourists came in & sat on the "shelf" behind me taking pics..distracting] ...cognitive intelligence..if good w/ people..interpersonal, intrapersonal..if we believe best of others..they will become what they think they r..what harm does it do to believe best abt others..what good ? Bring out best in them, love believes the best..what abt god ? I'm guilty..is god really there..some of u running smack dab..prayed, asked 4 healing..not gotten better, gotten worse ? Any of u faced that ? Pray for that ..sheila ..not getting better ? Temptation to believe worst..god not there..but we have a choice re what we will believe..think of hank & jean wiebe..they lost 2 kids..they don't blame god..loss of children brought them back to life,,spiritual life..god is love 1 john 4..perfect love, love of god..god speaks to u..do u believe him ? That's question..sheila..don't worry re chap 11, don't worry re empty seats..but I don't see ..tempted to not believe ..but god is there, does care..god says will never forsake,, do u believ ? God said "u r more than conquerors.." do u believe..love believes the best..re others, god, self,..have a mirror here..using this..sometimes look in mirror see ugly , unfit, inadequate..who am I to lead this ministry? Ever felt that way ? Bet u have ? How 'bout failure? Didn't work, tried this, ..maybe lost job, children in jail, marriage on rocks, spouse filed for divorce..maybe u feel ashamed..ever feel unloved..? I've felt so..it happens..time to time..maybe u felt unworthy..who r u why should anything good happen to u > sometimes we believe worst re selves..good news is..perfect love, jesus christ came to erase all of this..not unworthy, not failure..ur perfect..my child... here's the truth.u can believe lies from great deceiver...or u can believe God. God says to sheila.. u have a stunning soul..he says..u have multiple intelligences,.. he says u r loved...nothing can sep from god's love,, & u r my child ? ..beliv u r loved, successful, forgiven,,god belives best.prayer .love..believes has faith,, u believe best re us..u have given life to show how much..give us the courage to love others self & u as much..."
