Love.

This proved that anesthetics are all right for men; women, however, ought to suffer, because of the curse of Eve.

I must follow my Lord. No matter what. I must renew my allegiance every morning. It is His voice I must listen to, not the voices of those around me, however strident, however persuasive.

Billy was fascinated by the television. At its most basic level, it occupied his time and shut out the demons of isolation.

The continuing, direct operation of the Holy Ghost on those who are called to be God's children implies, in fact, a broadening process of incarnation. Christ, the son begotten by God, is the first-born who is succeeded by an ever-increasing number of younger brothers and sisters.
