Do you know the answer? I will tell you in a bit. I actually guessed one book, but it was wrong. Then I asked my mom and she gave me the right answer. I was able to go in to the store and pick put any T-shirt I wanted. I saw this one almost right away. I like the shirt for a few reasons. 1. It has my Dad's favorite Bible verse on it. 2. I like this verse myself. 3. It was free. When I wear this shirt, I know I will always think of Dad, and perhaps even feel him watching over me. The answer to the question? The book of Esther.

Sometimes, when we confide in others, what we have to say may get spread around, even though we don't plan for it to happen. People talk, that's just the way it is. Go...
