    I hear you about your very real struggle.  Take heart in remembering
    the Good News of the Gospel is that through Christ we *are* "OK" in
    God's eyes! (Even when *we* don't succeed perfectly in "following God's
    will for our lives!")

    	Nancy,
    	
    	You are right.  The key phrase is 'through' Christ.  There are
    many that 'claim' to be in Christ merely because they mention His name,
    but they have never really submitted their lives to His full control.

Nanci,

	I must've missed those photos.  My 11-year-old had a hard time
relating to this exhibit and he was kind of rushing his boring parents
through it.  Ricky is more into dinosaur bones.

	How did you manage with 2 even younger children?

201.6It was really easy...BSS::VANFLEETUncommon WomanFri May 31 1991 13:436
    Emily was a little anxious to get on to the hands-on Health exhibit but
    I talked to her about the exhibit all the way through, a mini-history
    lesson.  Drew was no problem.  He kept himself busy saying "Hi" and
    waving to all of the 100-150 people in the exhibit!  :-)
