I wish I had a beard. I've asked God to give me a beard, but it hasn't arrived just yet. I don't want to be vain. But, I do sincerely want a beard.

How old are you Bryan?

Man judges a person by his past deeds, and administers penalties for his wrongdoing. God judges a person by his present character, and disciplines him that he may become righteous.

I am 28, so I'm thinking it's not going to happen for me.

There are some men who just don't grow facial hair. I wouldn't worry about it. At least you don't have to shave every morning. :)

But, I do have to shave! There's just enough to be a problem, but not enough to be beautiful... :)

You are right about the need to be content.
