A short time ago, I typed a post on the "Fruit of the Holy Spirit is: love, joy, peace longsuffering , kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self control. (New King James Version)

Sorry y'all! I saw the dog under "unconditional love and he's so UGLY, he's cute. I couldn't resist him. Looks like me on a bad hair day! LOL! Even though this Challenge said nothing about dogs, I find that animals and God are just about the only one's with unconditional love. Yes, I know that a parent's love is supposed to be "unconditional, but even that is not 100% true. I'm not saying that all parents set conditions by ANY MEANS, just some. I have seen and heard about parents "disowning their children because they didn't do what they wanted them to, married someone they didn't like, or didn't aspire to the height in their careers or education they thought they should and so on. That to me definitely does not prove to be UNconditional.

Good luck, Happy Hunting, and Good Night to All!
May God Bless!
