“These early Saints were indeed homeless, but they were not hopeless. Their hearts were broken, but their spirits were strong. They had learned a profound and important lesson. They had learned that hope, with its attendant blessings of peace and joy, does not depend upon circumstance. They had discovered that the true source of hope is faith—faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and in His infinite Atonement, the one sure foundation upon which to build our lives.” HeartDoeImportantJoySpiritJesusStrongChristLordOur LivesSourceBrokenDependsCircumstancesLessonsBlessingJesus ChristInfiniteFoundationProfoundSaintHopelessHomelessAtonementLord Jesus ChristImportant LessonsPeace And Joy Author:Wilford W.

“Sometimes men and women prefer the darkness to the light because they are attached to their sins. Nevertheless it is only by opening oneself to the light and only by sincerely confessing one's sins to God that one finds true peace and true joy.

“Richard [Griffiths] was by my side during two of the most important moments of my career. In August 2000, before official production had even begun on Potter, we filmed a shot outside the Dursleys', which was my first ever shot as Harry. I was nervous and he made me feel at ease. Seven years later, we embarked on 'Equus' together. It was my first time doing a play but, terrified as I was, his encouragement, tutelage and humor made it a joy. In fact, any room he walked into was made twice as funny and twice as clever just by his presence.” FeelsYearsFirstsMadeTwoImportantPlayMomentsFactsTogetherJoySidesRoomsCareersShotsFirst TimeEncouragementSevenProductionsCleverNervousMade ItEaseOfficialsTerrifiedSeven YearsPottersAugustImportant MomentsTutelage Author:Daniel Radcliffe
