Sad to read that there were those in your life whom you care not to
meet ever again.

My wife is also born-again of water and the Holy Spirit. Thus, she and
I both anticipate the rest of eternity after our LORD's day of

satan.

May GOD bless you in HIS mighty way.

Prayerfully in Jesus' awesome love,
