“What is the greatest surprise you have found about life?” a university student asked me several years ago.  “The brevity of it,” I replied without hesitation.  Time moves so quickly, and no matter who we are or what we have done, the time will come when our lives will be over.  As Jesus said, “As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me.  Night is coming, when no one can work.”  (John 9:4)

Billy Graham

For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth.  He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

The King James Version

A quiet joy comes when we live the way God calls us to live.

John Yates

Give ear, our God, and hear; open your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears your Name.  We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy.

Daniel 9:18
The New International Version

You don’t always have to chop with the sword of truth.  You can point with it, too.

Duty does not have to be dull.  Love can make it beautiful and fill it with life.

Until we found it was ourselves.

It took me a long time to understand that God is not the enemy of my enemies.  God is not even the enemy of God’s enemies.

Martin Niemoller

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are of God; for many false prophets have gone out into the world.  By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit which does not confess Jesus is not of God.  This is the spirit of antichrist, of which you heard that it was coming, and now it is in the world already.

I love living and I love looking to the endless skies.  The world can’t hurt me.  No one can hurt me when I live in the circle of faith, love, and prayer.

Andre Leon Talley

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!  Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!

Psalm 34:8

Give me the children until they are seven and anyone may have them afterward.

Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content.

Helen Keller

Let no one deceive himself.  If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.  For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.  For it is written, “He catches the wise in their own craftiness”; and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.”  Therefore let no one boast in men.

Carry the cross patiently, and with perfect submission; and in the end it shall carry you.

Thomas Kempis

I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.

Isaiah 44:22
The King James Version

It is not how troubled the sea that determines the course of your life; it is who the Pilot is.

Every divine action begins from the Father, proceeds through the Son and is completed in the Holy Spirit.

Is not my word like fire, declares the Lord, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?

There is a way to look at the past.  Don’t hide from it.  It will not catch you if you don’t repeat it.

Let nothing disturb you,
nothing frighten you;
All things are passing;
God never changes;
Patient endurance
Attains all things;
Whoever possesses God
Lacks nothing;
God alone suffices.

Teresa of Avila

Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

Nothing and no one can prevent God’s plan from being fulfilled in your life, or that of your child, except your decision to give up on that plan.

Tom Newman

Don’t steal the land of defenseless orphans by moving their ancient boundary marks, for their Redeemer is strong; he himself will accuse you.
