Over the
years many people have learned, become proficient, even professionals at hiding
- covering up - not disclosing - even denying what they entertain and love -
what they desire and seek after - what they strive for and purchase with their

The words
of your mouth and the meditation of your heart reflect your relationship with
God. Inwardly you should be the same

those in the body of Christ who show genuine concern about you as an individual -
those who care about you and your overall quality of life.)"
