A story without context is like a diamond without a mounting. The stone may be beautiful lying loose on a table, but when it is carefully mounted in the right setting it can dazzle you with its brilliance and sparkling beauty.

When a person does something, it has the man or woman look about it. It drips with humanity. You can follow the logic of it and see the meaning behind it.

No, the thing that makes for greatness is determination, persisting in the right direction over the long haul, following your dream, staying at the task.

GRACE: All you can do is take it.

Please, put aside all excuses and ask yourself, "What should I be doing?" Yes, you alone can make a difference. The question is, will you?

Tell yourself right now and throughout today, that it's okay to draw away from the maddening crowd. Jesus did; so can you.

When I think of vision, I have in mind the ability to see above and beyond the majority.
