It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master.

MississippiGal Hello Jallen,
While I don't know you personally --- I have read many of your posts and find you a man who is straight to the point. Refreshing since extra words carry little value.
Please know that I will be praying for you daily .. as I do for so many others here.
I personally depend heavily on my God and Savior and he is how I make each day a good day.
Some days better than others -- but always thankful for all I have.
With the story you gave a few post back -- while your wife is off to piano camp and your son is coming to "dad sit"... I foresee a special time for you and him.
I personally will keep that picture in my heart -- knowing that you have a wonderful family who is seeing that you are comfortable and loved.
Please know that you have a big family here praying for you and your family.
Best wishes from all here.
Most Sincerely,
Donna

heathtxJALLEN,
You have been a wise source of advice and counsel for many members of the SigForum.
You posts have caused me to stop and re-read the information and for all your contributions I thank you, sir.
Wishing you better days ahead, from one Texan to another.

S600MBUSAJALLEN,
Warm thoughts headed your way, and hoping you feel better. I'm also hoping we get many more opportunities to learn from your knowledge and perspective. I've long considered you one of the forum "wise men."
Even when I have disagreed with something you said (rarely), the wit and humor with which you state your case always makes me think further about the issue. I can even think of a time or two I shook my head at something you posted, and then months later, I found myself thinking "you know, JALLEN was right after all."

I look forward to seeing that Longhorns avatar again.
