    You were rewarded, until you done bragged about it.

    Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

          The mangy pirate intends on using an old Xerox machine to make copies and a rubber stamp duplicate of the prodder of bovine's signature to make his own "special edition limited issue[1]" versions. I, being CP's twin younger big brother of another mother, am expecting a signed and inscribed presentation edition bound in leather from one of his own cows.








          1. limited by the number of folks he can sucker.

            I don't think the Lord is going to cheat me out of a blessing just because I shared it with my friends. That lady's hug was reward enough, besides God's richest blessings.

            Matt 15:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

            They did, indeed.

              We used have "testimony time" in Church when I was a kid, usually on Wednesday nights, I think, where people would share with others how good God had been to them.

              I never saw it as "bragging" - and I wonder why we don't do that much anymore.


              (one of our pastors used to call it "popcorn testimony time" - stand up, speak up, shut up, and sit down)

                  OK - but I often hear that as a supposed valid argument -- in fact, I think that was something I went round and round on with Sam.
