At our Sunday Study Group, we shared on Text, Ch. 7, X. The Confusion of Pain and Joy and Lesson 190 – I choose the joy of God instead of pain.In this new video, you will find excerpts from my sharing with those that gathered for our time together. One of the things that I learned from the Holy Spirit, many years ago, and Jesus, is that you can go to them for advice, and they'll give you advice, but they're not going to force you to do anything you don't want to do. They won’t force you to sacrifice, and they will always give you your options.You are always welcome to join us on any given Sunday. Also to our Wednesday study group and our daily Workbook Lesson.
