The better day, the worse deed.

May Christ be our joy, our confidence, our all. May we daily be made more like to Him, and more devoted to His service.

Be careful if you make a women cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man’s ribs. Not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal, under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved.
