    God became one of us so that we might know Him, so that He might know us and so that we might be saved.

    In Robert Frost's Poem "Mending Wall," the poet says, "Something there is that doesn't love a wall." We can identify with that statement, can't we? We detest walls. Walls divide. Walls hide. Walls even kill. Remember the Berlin Wall that split families, a city, and a country? But don't we ...read more
