She tells me "don't worry about standards right now.. they will come in time."
and I thought.. Okay, Almost ten yrs later, if "standards" were going to be in my heart, I'd think they'd be written on the flesh tablets by now!!

I just smiled at her and said "... pastor ---- is a good man! But I disagree with standards.. and that's that..."
The woman replies "..ask God and He will put the standards in your heart...." :eek:

and before I could say anything I was called in for X-rays.

I loove this woman. She and her family were always good to me. :) But I am amazed at that kind of thinking.. "ask God and He will put the standards in your heart.."


I'm just venting a little..
