Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ who stengthens me." - St. Paul (Phil. 4:11-13, nkjv) --------------------------------------------------------- file: /pub/resources/text/sunday.snippets: snip97-064.txt .
