“The death, and the burial, and the resurrection of Jesus happened over three days. Friday was the day of suffering and pain and agony. Saturday was the day of doubt and confusion and misery. But Easter, that Sunday, was the day of hope and joy and victory. You will face these three days over and over and over in your lifetime. And when you do, you’ll find yourself asking, as I did, three fundamental questions: Number one, what do I do in my days of pain? Two, how do I get through my days of doubt and confusion? Three, how do I get to the days of joy and victory? The answer is Easter.” TwoPainFacesJoySufferingThreeJesusAnswersNumbersDoubtHappenedVictoryAskingFundamentalsMiseryLifetimeConfusionSundayFinding YourselfResurrectionAgonySaturdayEasterFridayBurialJesus ResurrectionSuffering And Pain Author:Rick Warren
“Childhood is less clear to me than to many people: when it ended I turned my face away from it for no reason that I know about, certainly without the usual reason of unhappy memories. For many years that worried me, but then I discovered that the tales of former children are seldom to be trusted. Some people supply too many past victories or pleasures with which to comfort themselves, and other people cling to pains, real and imagined, to excuse what they have become.” PeopleKnowsYearsChildrenRealReasonPainPastFacesMemoriesPleasureClearChildhoodVictoryComfortExcuseUnhappyTalesFormerWorriedNo ReasonUsualTrustedHappy Memories Author:Lillian Hellman

“There is something that can happen to every athlete and every human being; the instinct to slack off, to give in to pain, to give less than your best; the instinct to hope you can win through luck or through your opponent not doing his best, instead of going to the limit and past your limit where victory is always found. Defeating those negative instincts that are out to defeat us, is the difference between winning and losing - and we all face that battle every day.” GivingHumansHappensPainPastFacesFoundWinningDifferencesHuman BeingsVictoryBattleLimitsLosingNegativeLuckInstinctDefeatAthleteOpponentsWinning And LosingYou Can Win Author:Jesse Owens
