For the Love of Church and Thy people, o Lord, I pray that Thou sendest Thy Spirit to grant us Patience, Counsel, tact, Prudence, Justice and Charity as we deal with one another. I also pray for Thy servant, Alex, simply because he has had not the best of days. For Thou art gracious and Lovest man.

Dear Friends,

You are too kind, and I thank God for the great grace of having friends like you!

In fairness, next time I hope I'll have the prudence to know when to keep my big mouth shut.

God bless!

Alex

Alex,
You know our prayers are with you at all times.
The Holy Spirit guides us all but He does need our help and cooperation.
Your chain reminds you that when a slave is annoyed or irritated he/she must turn to their Mistress and ask for Her help in coping with this, by asking Her to intercede with Her Son.

May Our Mistress keep you safe.

Alex, do what the Holy Spirit inspires you to do.

No chains; no mandates; no formulas; no subjugation. "Oh, the freedom of the Children of God." (St. Paul.)

Pray your tushie off; and KNOW that we your friends will storm heaven that the Holy Spirit will stand by you (as if He would do anything else!) and move on. And whatever happens will be the Will of God. Be free and move boldly forward. God has given you a lot of talents (and a boatload of graces); do it. And rely that the Lord will be there to save your butt if bad stuff comes your way.

We all love ya, you loony and loving Ukie crazy. (You need any guns?)

Bless you and your whole family!

Blessings!
