A good marriage is not one where perfection reigns: it is a relationship where a healthy perspective overlooks a multitude of "unresolvables."

God's Heart is especially tender toward the downtrodden and the defeated. He knows your name and He has seen every tear you have shed.

If you let a child know that you think he is lazy, sloppy, untruthful, unpleasant, and thoughtless, he'll probably prove you are right. Obviously, it is much better to make him stretch to reach a positive image than stoop to match one at ground level.

It will always hurt to be laughed at, snubbed, ignored or attacked by others. But I would remind you that the human personality grows through adversity, provided it is not crushed in the process.

Authority is God ordained, but authoritarianism and raw power, in almost all forms, is dangerous.

Trust involves letting go and knowing God will catch you.
