GUEST POST from Don – What you Deserve
WHAT YOU DESERVE Unlike most of my posts, the parable below did not come out of my own thoughts. I heard this on the radio in 2021 and thought it was excellent (and, of course, I added my own insights). The closest to how I tell it is found HERE although he includes some “lessons” I would …
