Dear Loving EChurch Family,

God has been telling me many things over the past few weeks. He has really
spoken to me about the material things He has given us, and how we need to
take care of them.

He is speaking to me rightnow as I write this. He is showing me that we
can't expect people to replace something that is broken, just because we
didn't take care of it. God really does teach us lessons and some of them
are hard to learn.

He is showing me that honesty is the only way, and that not telling the
truth about something will eventually lead to miss-trust in friendships,
and also that God will let us know when we've not been totally faithful to
him, and honest with Him. When we lie to our friends, or anyone, we are
lying to God. We may think we can fool our friends, and others, but we
can't fool God. He knows everything, and God knows when we are not telling
the truth, and some times God reveals this to others.

He doesn't appreciate dishonesty, and He  is hurt when we lie to others,
because we are lying to Him as well.

I'm praying that God reveals the truth about a certain situation.

I'm glad my Loving Vernon doesn't lie to me.

God Bless you all.

Lovingly,
Pat Ferguson
