I do understand what you mean, I think this is what can happen over time when old
age and difficulties creep up on us.

the liberation, plus being led by The Holy Spirit, is beyond words,..
there's really just no way for anyone to understand, unless they have
been there, done that...the powers that rule this world are always hungry
to capture one away from their Maker, the Giver and Taker of all we should'
possess, at some point in a Christian's life, He will make it very clear of what
He gives and wants you to have, as opposed to what the world offers and entices with...
