May the father of man and the Soul that leads us not into temptationMatt 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. keep you and perfect you in the beauty of holinessPs 96:9 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth. , make a servant of Truth and the blessing to those who curse usMatt 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Luke 6:28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. Read the precious word and keep as much aloof from the "lie" as possible then will the communication be open between us and I Truth, will not leave you comfortless but come unto youJohn 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. . I will let you know when my class commences. I am kept back by this weather the tenants cannot vacate and I cannot move


In haste
Truly
