merci pour ces beaux témoignages qui sentent bon les moissons du Royaume dont on entend si peu parler ces temps-ci, du moins en Europe. Merci de ce beau partage fait de bénédictions, de paroles, de faits et de prières qui changent la face de la terre. Courage aux laissés pour compte, aux afro et indigènes, aux femmes et aux petites filles qui pâtissent toujours plus... vous êtes les élus et vous avez le droit de vous l'entendre dire.
