God's viewpoint is sometimes different from ours - so different that we could not even guess at it unless He had given us a Book which tells us such things....In the Bible I learn that God values us not for our strenght or our brains but simply because He has made us.

When He tells us to love our enemies He gives, along with the command, the love itself.

God raises the level of the impossible.

Jesus loves sinners. He only loves sinners. He has never turned anyone away who came to Him for forgiveness, and He died on the cross for sinners, not for respectable people.

Children need the wisdom of their elders; the aging need the encouragement of a child's exuberance.

Love is larger than the walls which shut it in.

and here I felt a strange leaping of my heart-God did! My job was to simply follow His leading one step at a time, holding every decision up to him in prayer.
