Only by the Grace of God has this been possible. I thank each of you for being part of this bible study and sharing. I have been through many ups and downs in the last 10 years, due to an unexpected divorce after 16 years. Looking back though it has been a blessing from God. May each of you be richly blessed over the course of this study.
