Harriet


When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.

Amos Bronson Alcott

Listening is a magnetic and strange thing, a creative force. When we really listen to people there is an alternating current, and this recharges us so that we never get tired of each other. We are constantly being re-created.

Mark McGee


What should we emphasize in our teaching We learn much from Paul's letters to Timothy and Titus. Paul mentored each and sent them out to the churches to encourage and instruct God's Children of Grace. Notice how often Paul uses the words 'command,' 'warn,' and 'remind' in his letters to Timothy and Titus. God wants us to be loving and gentle in the way we teach His children, but He also wants us to be strong, precise and decisive in what we declare. We are not 'asking' Christians to obey God's Word. We are 'telling' them what God commands. We have no special power in ourselves, but when we preach God's Word we have the 'Power' of God behind us Our preaching and teaching should be in the 'Power and Strength' of God. He gave us the responsibility and authority to declare His Word. We do it humbly, but we do it.

Terry Josephson


No matter where you go or what you do, you live your entire life within the confines of your head.

Henry Ward Beecher


Never forget what a man says to you when he is angry.

Thomas Jefferson


One man with courage is a majority.

W. Somerset Maugham


The rain fell alike upon the just and upon the unjust, and for nothing was there a why and a wherefore.

Samuel Johnson


I am always sorry when any language is lost, because languages are the pedigrees of nations.

Eric Hoffer


The fear of becoming a 'has-been' keeps some people from becoming anything.

Aldous Huxley


A country which proposes to make use of modern war as an instrument of policy must possess a highly centralized, all-powerful executive, hence the absurdity of talking about the defense of democracy by force of arms. A democracy which makes or effectively prepares for modern scientific war must necessarily cease to be democratic.

Jeanne Phillips


All the world's a cage.
