A tree is not skewed by the fallen nature of man nor the pyschological filters of their environment. A natural source of knowledge has a purity to it.<BR/><BR/>Jesus said, "consider the lilies...consider the birds."<BR/><BR/>TonyTony Arnoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497055762329338990noreply@blogger.com
