It is better to trust and sometimes be disappointed than to be forever mistrusting and be right occasionally.

The truth is that not yet usually means never. Trying to run away from the responsibility to decide about Christ is childish. Pilate sought to refuse responsibility for deciding about Christ, but Pilate's hands were never dirtier than just after he had washed them.

Long ago when a child lay in a manger, a special star appeared. It didn't just show up that evening. It had to have been placed in its orbit centuries before in a trajectory that would make it appear at that special moment of time to announce the birth of a special child. Just as there is divine design in the universe, so each of us has been placed in our own orbits in this life to love, to serve, to help light the world.

Crowds cannot make right what God has declared to be wrong.

The laughter of the world is merely loneliness pathetically trying to reassure itself.

God will facilitate, but He will not force.

Many of those engaged in a lemming-like march to the sea are proud of their individualism.
