† Maurice, shalom to you and may your path be ever more so filled with wonders and glory like the innocence of babes discovering who they are and who are the people around them and how they relate to one another. Even more importantly who you are, and who God is, and who you are in relation to Him!
You see Maurice, you are not just Maurice an island, not even just Maurice a father,husband, brother, son, uncle, nephew,friend or foe.
You are Maurice, created in the image of God! You are Maurice, a child of God! You are Maurice, a man that Jesus died for! You are Maurice, just an ordinary man in the eyes of the world, but in the eyes of God our Father you are special, because He sent His only begotten Son to die for you, because He believes in you!
If you would like to see your life change in ways that you could never before imagine, give God a chance. Go to Him, ask Him to show you that He exists. Talk to him just as you have been talking to us here, but be more open and less frivolous. Seek Him with a contrite and curious heart. Give Him just half the time you have given us here, and He will give you the rest of your life! All we can give you are directions to Him, but He can give you life! Because He believes in you!
So Maurice I am truly thankful to God that He has allowed me to be a part of this time in your life. Please Maurice if you consider nothing else consider this: If any one or all three of your children asked for a piece of bread, would you instead give them a stone? Or if he asked for a fish, would give him a serpent. If you then being not perfect, know how to give good things to your children, how much more shall your Father in heaven give good things to them that ask Him? Mat.7:7-11
Psalm 14
Shalom to you Maurice and Baruch Tihyeh!

You do have Bechir'a :) |
