-Ephesians 5:11-13
Cause and Effect. Action and Result. Bad decision, bad conclusion. Life sometimes is really that simple. This may be why diets don’t work, and as a result lots of people die young and fat. The present temptation to the county commissioners overrode any consideration of what the ultimate effect would be.
I am persuaded that the prime hindrance to job creation isn’t government, but Obama himself. The average small business owner keeps saying to himself, “When is he going to quit?
