Memories are perhaps the best gifts of all.

Choices can change our lives profoundly. The choice to mend a broken relationship, to say "yes" to a difficult assignment, to lay aside some important work to play with a child, to visit some forgotten person - these small choices may affect many lives eternally.

Even in the winter, in the midst of the storm, the sun is still there. Somewhere above the clouds, it still shines and warms and pulls at the life buried deep inside the brown branches and frozen earth.

There is something in every season, in every day, to celebrate with thanksgiving.

When I look at where I’ve been, I see that what I am becoming is a whole lot further down the road from where I was.

If we just give God the little that we have, we can trust Him to make it go around.

There may be no trumpet sound or loud applause when we make a right decision, just a calm sense of resolution and peace.
