“Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and Your dominion

Has not the LORD made them one? In flesh and spirit they are His. And why one? Because He was seeking godly offspring. So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith with the wife of your youth.
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

part of the delights of a familly run-from-home enterprise. Just think.. the average kids these days would be plugged in to their x-boxes, racing around on the streets in fast tuny cars or motorcycles, or hanging out at some street corner doing who knows what. Kids like these are the ones who will be running things twenty years down the road. Good going.
