Lessons

"If Jesus is our model, then servanthood is our method.

If servanthood is our method, then people are our ministry.

If people are our ministry, then involvement is the means."

We are "not servants to activities or to administrative details or to things.  We serve people."

Charles R. Swindoll

The Three Wonders of Heaven

You remember the story of the three wonders in heaven. The first wonder was, that we should see so many there we did not expect to see there; the second was, that we should miss so many we did expect to see there; but the third wonder would be the greatest wonder of all,—to see ourselves there.

Tyranny

Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

"The Old That is Strong Does Not Wither" Tolkien

"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king."

— J.R.R. Tolkien (The Fellowship of the Ring)

It is still murder!!

If he is not alive,
why is he growing?

If he is not a human being,
what kind of being is he?

If he is not a child
why is he sucking his thumb?

If he is a living, human child,
why is it legal to kill him?
