Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. There have been times, of late, that I have had a hard time picking myself up, but knowing how I would disappoint my Creator God, I knew that He would be there to help me up and sustain me, so up I got. Have a blessed day today and always.
