After everything so many people have done... what a rip. Well... we said from the beginning of the recovery that we would have to feed the greedy to get to the needy. We didn't have the time or resources to do backgrounds on everyone. We figured that God would deal with the theives. Hopefully by leading them to himself. Otherwise...well...JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02468842019388380542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9827454.post-1164216625753906652006-11-22T11:30:00.000-06:002006-11-22T11:30:00.000-06:00Thanks for these posts.

I have the decided advantage of being in a community where most of the people around me and my world are "poor." They keep me honest and their hearts keep me inspired and going. So many good folks who are simply working hard at crafting better lives.Larry Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06124477733714017000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9827454.post-1164207718531303912006-11-22T09:01:00.000-06:002006-11-22T09:01:00.000-06:00The best scam is the one I haven't realized was a ...The best scam is the one I haven't realized was a scam yet.

Inside was a typewritten letter written in a foreign language from Russia. The translation was on the opposite side. It was from a young man pleading for a Bible. Underneath was suggested amounts I could send to provide Bibles. I tend to think this was a scam because the letter was made to look so personal on the envelope.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
