It is such an honor to be invited into people's lives and to share with them the joys and hurts, the highs and lows. What an honor...what a responsibility!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03977799699814671231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22297646.post-5563513269447663552007-03-05T16:39:00.000-05:002007-03-05T16:39:00.000-05:00Clay - I'll check out that book; thanks!Clay - I'll check out that book; thanks!Keith H.

I would recite the 23rd Psalm, share the words of a familiar hymn and just listen to whatever was on the person's heart.
