Hi John.
     Was listening to the news late last night (southern Conn & RI border area), and they said that Americans spent over $5,000,000,000  dollars, on the "sweeties" of Halloween.  5 billion dollars !!!!     When I look at this number,......I keep saying to myself, that I have the comma in the wrong place,......but a billion does come after million,  right ?  (ha ha)
      What is wrong with this country ???............and my heart breaks to just think of what could have been done for the Kingdom here,.......and over seas, or in just helping the poor, somewhere.......even across the street.....besides "candy".
       How long will the Lord have patience ? ......and let this continue,........when we not only continue spending this way,.........but spend more each year, to promote this day, alone ???
                                                                                        May HE come soon !!!
