“Do the Pentecostals look back with shame as they remember when they dwelt across the theological tracks, but with the glory of the Lord in their midst? When they had a normal church life, which meant nights of prayers, followed by signs and wonders, and diverse miracles, and genuine gifts of the Holy Ghost? When they were not clock watchers, and their meetings lasted for hours, saturated with holy power? Have we no tears for these memories, or shame that our children know nothing of such power?” KnowsLooksChildrenRememberNightHoursChurchMemoriesPrayerWonderLordTearsHolyNormalGloryMiracleShameOur ChildrenMeetingsTrackGenuineGhostClockMidstDiverseRemember WhenHoly GhostTheologicalWatchersSaturatedSigns And WondersChurch Life Author:Leonard Ravenhill
“Love is the reason why my mother and father stick together in a hard life when they might each have an easier one apart; love is the reason why you choose a life with someone, and you don't turn back although your heart cries sometimes and your children see you cry and you wish out loud that things were easier. Love is getting up each day and fighting the same fight only to sleep that night in the same bed beside the same person because long ago, when you were younger and you did not see so clearly, you had chosen them.” HeartChildrenPersonsLongSometimesHardReasonMightTogetherMotherNightTurnsFightingFatherWishSleepLove IsCryEasierBedOur ChildrenSticksChosenLoudReason WhyYour ChildrenEach DayYou ChooseLong AgoMother And FatherHard Life Author:Kao Kalia Yang

“I was over in Australia during Easter, which was really interesting. You know, they celebrate Easter the exact same way we do, commemorating the death and resurrection of Jesus by telling our children that a giant bunny rabbit left chocolate eggs in the night.

“When I was growing up, you were supposed to marry and therefore didn't plan ahead. Planning ahead is one of the few reliable measures of class in the sense that rich people plan for generations forward and poor people plan for Saturday night, and by that measure, women have been lower class. We were less likely to plan ahead because we're more likely to think that who we marry and our children are going to dictate our plans.” PeopleThinkingChildrenHas BeensNightPoorClassGrowing UpRichGrowingPlansGenerationsOur ChildrenPlanningSaturdayPoor PeopleRich PeopleSaturday NightLower ClassPlanning Ahead Author:Gloria Steinem
