to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:20b
But rather than recoil in horror, He reaches out in kindness and says,
"I can clean that if you want." And, from the basin of His grace,
He scoops a palm full of mercy and washes our sin. -- Max Lucado

Success is not final, failure is not fatal;
it is the courage to continue that counts.
Winston Churchill
Evil is simply the absence of God ... It is just like darkness and cold,
a word that man has created to describe the absence of God.
God did not create evil. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have
God's love present in his heart. It's like the cold that comes
when there is no heat, or the darkness that comes when there is no light.
Albert Einstein "God vs. Science" 1921

And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you.
I will take out your stony, stubborn heart
and give you a tender, responsive heart.
Ezekiel 36:26, NLT
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His loving kindness toward those who fear Him. As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. Psalm 103:10-12 NASB
Pope John Paul II
Trials, temptations, disappointments -- all these are helps instead of hindrances, if one uses them rightly. They not only test the fibre of a character, but strengthen it. Every conquered temptation represents a new fund of moral energy. Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before. - James Buckham
"Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again more intelligently."
Henry Ford
"In this life we cannot always do great things.
But we can do small things with great love." Mother Teresa
I've learned that what you have is the only thing you can give away.
I've learned that when I am lonely, sad, bitter, angry…
that is what I give to my children.
When I am happy, joyful, hopeful, peaceful, loving...
that is what I give to my children.
Get the good stuff so that you can give the good stuff to your children.
in your thoughts and prayers
whether they are back home
or still in the fight
But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today,
so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness
Be kinder than necessary,
for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
