Hard to see how a true believer would not be encouraged by the content of Romans 8. :)

Well, fine! I just didn't want to tell you my wife's age where everyone else can see it... :)

Well this is healthy, spiritually and psychologically if by God's grace you are your own woman. If you can quit, quit; if you still need your inhales, inhale. (I guess the great Spurgeon would have said something pretty similar.)

Do you have a verse for this?
