Come on Brother
Come on sister
Let us was together in the river
Let our sins erase
let us all embrace
the Love of our dear Brother Jesus....

I just felt the words as I read the discusion, so I share with all of you my
love and thanks you are in my family.
Jesus Lives... I know not much else, but that is the beginning of all
knowledge...
