When you listen to audible books, are you listening to the person reading
them,or the computer voice?
Sarai and Rosie, Proverbs 3:5,6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
                          And lean not on your own understanding;
                          In all your ways acknowledge Him,
                          And He shall direct your paths."
