It was uphill then as he struggled to fend-off entrenched forces in his institution, while maintaining some presence in consultancy. His gestures to placate his antagonists, went unreciprocated, until he opted out. When I saw him again months ago after seven years, he was singing a new song. Today, God has elevated him to a reference point in his field of expertise and given him testimony beyond his imagination.

??The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us ? Romans 8: 18 (KJV)

The pressure now is your ladder to pleasure.
Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
