... all powerful is evident within the
Catholic and many other faiths as they pray for his power to extend unto
themselves. The power of God helps to stir within all, Catholics
especially, a feeling of strength. This strength comes from knowing God
shares his power among each of us. His power is shared amongst us because

11 or 12 because of the intricate words and long sentences. I liked this
