As we pass one another in the street why do we look at each other like a stranger when the book says we are brothers and sisters just because we did not grow up in the same home with someone telling us that is your brother and sister show them love forgive them when they hurt you but the book says we are all brother and sisters to each other so are you being a real or just another snake so turn your life around let the one from above take over your heart you will never be the same again and you will finally have peace in your heart and be able to deal with the pain in this life because we all have pain in our hearts from the past so let the one from above change your heart and you will never be the same again instead of being a snake you will be a person of faith so let him heal your heart and give you a new start to forgive one another and to love one another CR 1-16-16 owner J
