so many possibilities - so little space.

"This too shall pass." my mom (she personified the Proverbs 31 woman)

"The real extremists in this debate are those who have never met an abortion they would not prevent." Cal Thomas

"Heroism is endurance for one moment more."
George Kennan

"It is high time that Christians should rediscover that the very heart of their faith is that Jesus Christ did not come to make a contribution to the
religious storehouse of mankind, but that in him God reconciled the world to Himself." Visser't Hooft

". . . that people often say about Him: "I'm ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don't accept His claim to be God." That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic--on a level with the man who says he is a poached egg--or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronising nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to."
C. S. Lewis

"Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important." C.S. Lewis

When a Christian shuns fellowship with other Christians, the devil smiles. When he stops studying the Bible, the devil laughs. When he stops praying, the devil shouts for joy. Corrie ten Boom

When I say "hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come," I should be adding in my mind the words "in and through me," and so giving myself to God afresh to be, so far as I can be, the means of answering my own prayer. And when I say "thy will be done," I should mean this as a prayer that I, along with the rest of God's people, may learn to be obedient. J.I. Packer

The best learning I had came from teaching. Corrie ten Boom

Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement. C.S. Lewis

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend". --Martin Luther King, Jr.

"None so empty of grace as he that thinks he is full."
