What person in the Bible do you most resemble?  Barnabas, I believe God has given me the gift to encourage and inspire.

What is one of your favorite passages in the Bible?

          "If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.  Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.  For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.  When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory." Colossians 3:1-4
