Scars - Physical vs. Emotional) (Note: I wrote this 4 years ago with the intention of posting it, but it looks like I never got around to doing that, so after reading it again, I decided this needed to be posted) --------------------------------------------------------------------- After having my 6th surgery in 5 years, I have a lot of scars.

The Christian magazine said that while the music was good, the message was lacking and didn’t really seem Christian.
