Have you been studying French? Question Response

Dear Ashley                                                                                                 24 April 2024       You asked me via text last summer about whether I had followed up on my earlier expressed interest in French.  I believe that you, like your mother, are relatively strong in your innate intuitive powers.

So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha. 10 And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean. 11 But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the Lord his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper. 12 Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned...
