“It is the burning lava of the soul that has a furnace within--a very volcano of grief and sorrow-it is that burning lava of prayer that finds its way to God.

“A home is much more than a house built of lumber, brick, or stone. A home is made of love, sacrifice, and respect. We are responsible for the homes we build. We must build wisely, for eternity is not a short voyage. There will be calm and wind, sunlight and shadows, joy and sorrow. But if we really try, our home can be a bit of heaven here on earth. The thoughts we think, the deeds we do, the lives we live not only influence the success of our earthly journey, they also mark the way to our eternal goals.” IfsThinkingWayTryingMadeHomeEarthJoyHouseHeavenBitsGoalSacrificeJourneyInfluenceWindSorrowEternalShadowBuiltStonesEternityMarkResponsibleCalmDeedsSunlightBricksVoyagesJoys And SorrowsLumberLove Sacrifice Author:Thomas S.

“It is no strain of metaphor to say that the love of God and the wrath of God are the same thing, described from opposite points of view. How we shall experience it depends upon the way we shall come up against it: God does not change; it is man's moral state that changes. The wrath of God is a figure of speech to denote God's unchanging opposition to sin; it is His righteous love operating to destroy evil. It is not evil that will have the last word, but good; not sorrow, but joy; not hate, but love.” MenWayLoveDoeStatesLastsJoyHateEvilSinViewsMoralFiguresDependsSorrowSpeechOppositesMetaphorCome UpPoint Of ViewGod LoveOppositionRighteousStrainLast WordsWrathLove HateUnchangingWrath Of GodFigures Of Speech Author:Reginald John Campbell

“I can remember being eight years old and having infinite possibilities. But life ends up being so much less that we thought it would be when we were kids, with relationships that are so empty and stupid and brutal.

“For in prosperity a man is often puffed up with pride, whereas tribulations chasten and humble him through suffering and sorrow. In the midst of prosperity the mind is elated, and in prosperity a man forgets himself; in hardship he is forced to reflect on himself, even though he be unwilling. In prosperity a man often destroys the good he has done; amidst difficulties he often repairs what he long since did in the way of wickedness.” MenWayMindLongDoneSufferingForgetPrideSorrowDifficultyProsperityHumbleMidstHardshipWickednessUnwillingTribulationForget Him Author:Alfred the Great
