“On the ground of our own goodness we cannot expect to have our prayers answered. But Jesus is worthy, and for His sake we may have our prayers answered. There is nothing too choice, too costly, or too great for God to give Him. He is worthy. He is the spotless, holy Child, who under all circumstances acted according to the mind of God. And if we trust in Him, if we hide in Him, if we put Him forward and ourselves in the background, depend on Him and plead His name, we may expect to have our prayers answered.” IfsGivingMindMayChildrenChoicesJesusNamesPrayerDependsCircumstancesHolyGoodnessSakeWorthyBackgroundsOur PrayersAnswered Prayers Author:George Muller
“I was a teenager, we were pretty much fully indoctrinated, thanks to sexual scare tactics. I remember so many public-health commercials with a B-actor in a fake alley background warning us to use protection or telling us the only real safe choice was abstinence.

There was no free-swinging '90s.” RealUseRememberChoicesActorsSexSafeProtectionBackgroundsThanksTeenagerFakeFrightenedScareWarningTacticsAlleysPublic HealthAbstinenceScare Tactics Author:Michael Stipe

“It is possible for two people who have wide differences of preference and opinion, of habits, of teaching, of training, of background and belief to enjoy the company of each other in many ways. Indeed, a diversity of friendships is one of life's real enrichments. To learn of the goodness of those who are unlike-their worth, their sincerity, their good hearts, their good minds, their good company-is rich and rewarding. It is wonderful to have a wide range of choice friends who can be counted on, friends who can be enjoyed and loved and trusted. Such is the meaning of friendship.” PeopleWayMindHeartTwoRealChoicesBeliefEnjoyDifferencesCompanyOpinionRichWonderfulTeachingHabitGoodnessDiversityTrainingWideBackgroundsEnjoyedRangeSincerityTrustedPreferenceGood HeartGood CompanyEnrichmentGood MindMeaning Of Friendship Author:Richard L.
