    Christmas is a time of joy, at least it should be. But sadly, many will have a Bah, Humbug attitude. A heart two sizes too small for this season. You don’t have to be green & have bad teeth to mess up Christmas, and you don’t have to live in Whoville t

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 19, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,633 views

    When our needs are real, we want genuine answers, not just appeasements. Look to self-esteem, look to the resources already present, and look to the Lord of victory for real answers.

    When you need something, and you ask for it, what do you expect? Do you expect an answer or an appeasement? Do you expect a clear-cut, usable answer to your request, or are you satisfied if you are just told, well, have a nice day? When you need something, and you ask for it, which really satisfies ...read more
