Life isn't perfect and that's the kind of world where Jesus showed up. He wasn't born in a palace on a perfect day.

The aggregate amount. The everything.

The older you are, the further down the crash is going to be. But if it works out, the higher the high.

I can tell you that in my modern life I enjoy language. I enjoy words, their meaning, what they sound like to the ear, what they sound like to the listener.

This combination of self-sacrifice and love must be commenced in every Christian; and when it shall be in its spirit complete in him, then will he also be perfect in strength and beauty.
