He has been working on me with waiting for Him and I keep questioning Him, "Why can't I do it now?" Then when I am tasked to do something, I ask, "Really, are You serious? This can't be what You want me to do. I can't do that!" Your story has helped me to clearly see that I will have battles within myself and that God's waiting is preparation. Thank you so much and I look forward to reading more.Larie Carlice Proverbs 27:19https://www.blogger.com/profile/01979040461575715284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982662593354859176.post-7915208958649772022008-12-27T14:51:00.000-07:002008-12-27T14:51:00.000-07:00Incredibly real and vivid and unique take.

Then reading of the first miracle in Cana was "so real". Your story makes me want to know more of His "growing up years". The everyday life He lived. Wonderfully written, Betsy (as usual). :)BethLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16437061780974521381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982662593354859176.post-52848004584917544742008-12-27T09:33:00.000-07:002008-12-27T09:33:00.000-07:00This is just amazing!

What an unfathomable thing - God taking on flesh and becoming one of His own creatures! It's almost unthinkable, yet I think we'll spend eternity being amazed at the thought. You've brought a bit of it down to earth for me with your fiction. Thanks for that.Laurie M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15840896949617719814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982662593354859176.post-86273562518317628392008-12-26T22:02:00.000-07:002008-12-26T22:02:00.000-07:00Oh, Betsy, your writing has moved me to tears!
