page 92, Charity and its Fruits, Jonathan Edwards

Do you think the injuries you have received from your fellow-man

are more than you have offered to God?

Has your enemy been more base,

more unreasonable, more ungrateful, than you have to the High and Holy One?

Have his offences been more heinous or aggravated,

or more in number, than yours has been against your Creator, Benefactor, and Redeemer?

Have they been more provoking and exasperating

than your sinful conduct has been to him who is the author of all our mercies,

and to whom you are under the highest obligations?

I like Ross now. These shoes were $1.49. Purple velvet DUCK SHOES. IN MY SIZE. My plans are to go into that store every time I get groceries from now on. Can't beat $1.49 for some of the neatest shoes in the world. I have seen this in a couple of places on blogs and the internet in general. I was fully planning on ordering one....but our Kroger store had them for $12 something. We've made 6 or 7 cups of coffee with this in our K-pot....and I am tickled to have it. I can now buy fun kinds of ground coffee.....not to say that Wal-Mart store brand decaff is a fun brand, but it's what I always used to drink. And I lived. These are useful, not beautiful.
