Sin is the result of deep and unmet needs.

I ask you, what good is a big picture window and the lavish appointments and a priceless decor in a home if there is no mother there?

Peace of mind, joy and happiness cannot be purchased with money or worldly goods.

We must be trained to clarify minds, heal broken hearts, and create homes where sunshine will make an environment in which mental and spiritual health may be nurtured. Our schooling must not only teach us how to bridge the Niagara River gorge, or the Golden Gate, but must teach us how to bridge the deep gaps of misunderstanding and hate and discord in the world.

But let us emphasize that right and wrong, righteousness and sin, are not dependent upon man's interpretations, conventions and attitudes. Social acceptance does not change the status of an act, making wrong into right. If all the people in the world were to accept homosexuality, the practice would still be a deep, dark sin.

Wherever you have a plot of land, however small, plant a garden. Staying close to the soil is good for the soul.

There are many upright and faithful who live all the commandments and whose lives and prayers keep the world from destruction.
