Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Shy people have trouble expressing themselves verbally but the more they speak, the easier it becomes. The Same holds true for speaking the Good News of Jesus. I wish to spend the rest of my life speaking that Good News to all willing to listen. Have a blessed day today and always.
