“When hard times come, the greatest danger does not necessarily lie in the circumstances we face, but rather in the way we treat ourselves at the time. Nothing is more dangerous than self-hate. Nothing makes it more difficult to heal or to find the grace of peace than self-attack and the agony of self-doubt.” WayDoeSelfHardFacesLyingHateDifficultCompassionDoubtGraceDangerousDangerCircumstancesTreatsHealHard TimesAgonySelf-doubtSelf Hate Author:Stephen Schwartz
“Its not possible to do the wrong thing. You do what you do and you experience the consequences of what you do.

“The problem is that tolerant has changed its meaning. It used to mean 'I may disagree with you completely, but I will treat you with respect. Today, tolerant means - 'you must approve of everything I do.' There's a difference between tolerance and approval. Jesus accepted everyone no matter who they were. He doesn't approve of everything I do, or you do, or anybody else does either. You can be accepting without being approving.” MayMeanDoeMatterProblemTodayUsedJesusDifferencesAcceptingChangedGayTreatsAcceptedToleranceDisagreeApprovalGay MarriageApproving Author:Rick Warren
“If it be asked, Why does God not bestow the same or equal blessing upon all people? we can only answer, that has not been fully revealed. We see that in actual life He does not treat all alike.

“The difference between an amateur and a professional photographer is that the amateur thinks the camera does the work. And they treat the camera with a certain amount of reverence. It is all about the kind of lens you choose, the kind of film stock you use… exactly the sort of perfection of the camera. Whereas, the professional the real professional – treats the camera with unutterable disdain. They pick up the camera and sling it aside. Because they know it’s the eye and the brain that count, not the mechanism that gets between them and the subject that counts.” ThinkingKnowsKindDoeRealUseEyeFilmCertainDifferencesBrainSubjectsAmountPicksPerfectionTreatsCamerasPhotographerYou ChooseReverenceMechanismLensesDisdainProfessional Photographer Author:David Hemmings
“Stand still. The trees ahead and bushes beside you Are not lost. Wherever you are is called Here, And you must treat it as a powerful stranger, Must ask permission to know it and be known. The forest breathes. Listen. It answers, I have made this place around you, If you leave it you may come back again, saying Here. No two trees are the same to Raven. No two branches are the same to Wren. If what a tree or a bush does is lost on you, You are surely lost. Stand still. The forest knows Where you are.

“A physician is not angry at the intemperance of a mad patient, nor does he take it ill to be railed at by a man in fever.

“A warrior accepts defeat. He does not treat it as a matter of indifference, nor does he attempt to transform it into a victory. The pain of defeat is bitter to him; he suffers at indifference and becomes desperate with loneliness. After all this has passed, he licks his wounds and begins everything anew.

“The Church of Christ, zealous and cautious guardian of the dogmas deposited with it, never changes any phase of them. It does not diminish them or add to them; it neither trims what seems necessary now grafts things superfluous . . . but it devotes all its diligence to one aim: To treat tradition faithfully and wisely; to consolidate and to strengthen what already was clear; and to guard what already was confirmed and defined.” DoeSeemsChristChurchClearTraditionTreatsAimAddDefinedDogmaPhasesDiminishGuardianNever ChangeCautiousDiligenceSuperfluousZealousChurch Of Christ Author:St. Vincent
