I have also enjoyed following this discussion.  Good ideas have been brought
forth.  Phillip and Lee have both made simple yet poignant suggestions.
Perhaps we could leave it here and see what revisions the committee comes up
with.  Hopefully we will get to review it before it becomes ‘permanent’.
They have worked hard on their assignment, freely giving their hours for all
of us and I thank them.

My evening prayers include a desire for a spiritual revival for our country
(and our world).  I pray that God will break the chains of fear and hate
that imprison so many so that they may be able to stand up and breathe free
and feel the true love of God….. and then they will begin to love our true
Father who will help them to learn to love each other.  Fear and hate will
be abolished.

God is good……all the time!!!

Live in such a way that those who don’t know God will come to know God
because they know you.

I like where you are going Philip. I also recommend keeping “Father” and
Jesus; but adding stimulation via some cosmic yet down-to-earth
descriptives:

With affectionate dedication to Father/Mother God, as loving spiritual
parents to all the universes, and to their Creator Son, known as Jesus, who
is a living revelation to our planet, it is our conviction….
