“A person can live about forty days without food, about three days without water, about eight minutes without air, but only for one second without hope."

"I am grateful for the dailyness....Nature shows the strength and joy of dailyness. I am grateful for daily sunrises and sunsets, for the stars' and moon's appearance daily. In times of great stress and trial, the routine things sustain us--daily prayer and daily scripture study."

Girl With No Fingers Plays the Piano Beautifully
After watching this, ask yourself - what is truly stopping you from achieving your dreams? The Bible says with God, all things are possible. And this video shows just that...amazing!

"God expects you to have enough faith and determination and enough trust in Him to keep moving, keep living, keep rejoicing. In fact, He expects you not simply to face the future (that sounds pretty grim and stoic); He expects you to embrace and shape the future--to love it and rejoice in it and delight in your opportunities... God is anxiously waiting for the chance to answer your prayers and fulfil your dreams, just as He always has. But He can't if you don't pray, and He can't if you don't dream. In short, He can't if you don't believe."

Charles Dickens
Hear my prayer, O heavenly Father,
Ere I lay me down to sleep;
Bid Thy angels, pure and holy,
Round my bed their vigil keep.
My sins are heavy, but Thy mercy
Far outweighs them, every one;
Down before Thy cross I cast them,
Trusting in Thy help alone.
Keep me through this night of peril
Underneath its boundless shade;
Take me to Thy rest, I pray Thee,
When my pilgrimage is made.
None shall measure out Thy patience
By the span of human thought;
None shall bound the tender mercies
Which Thy Holy Son has bought.
Pardon all my past transgressions,
Give me strength for days to come;
Guide and guard me with Thy blessing
Till Thy angels bid me home.
Ere I lay me down to sleep;
Bid Thy angels, pure and holy,
Round my bed their vigil keep.
My sins are heavy, but Thy mercy
Far outweighs them, every one;
Down before Thy cross I cast them,
Trusting in Thy help alone.
Keep me through this night of peril
Underneath its boundless shade;
Take me to Thy rest, I pray Thee,
When my pilgrimage is made.
None shall measure out Thy patience
By the span of human thought;
None shall bound the tender mercies
Which Thy Holy Son has bought.
Pardon all my past transgressions,
Give me strength for days to come;
Guide and guard me with Thy blessing
Till Thy angels bid me home.

"I will always treasure a prayer sent by my sister at a time when my heart was full of anger and pa.in. Living this prayer became my g.oal: Thank you, Heavenly Father, for those people in my life who have wronged me. How else can I learn to forgive?"

"Let us never forget to pray. God lives. He is near. He is real. He is not only aware of us but cares for us. He is our Father. He is accessible to all who will seek Him."

"How simple it is, really, to extend a kindness when we see the need. Jesus set the example on many occasions. He led the blind man out of the town. Just a small kindness, but a powerful example. God helps us to recognize the opportunities we have every day to touch lives in small and simple ways."

“A true relationship with Christ will mean a new relationship with his people. We cannot be related to Christ without at the same time being related to His body, the church, the universal company of all who are renewed by Holy Spirit.”
David Watson
“Until the kingdom of God can be demonstrated in our relationships of love with one another, we will have nothing to say to an unbelieving world.”

"We're not alone--at least, we're alone only if we choose to be alone. We're alone only if we choose to go through life relying solely on our own strength rather than learning to draw upon the power of God."

آموخته ام که
با پول مي شود خانه خريد ولي آشيانه نه،
رختخواب خريد ولي خواب نه،
ساعت خريد ولي زمان نه،
مي توان مقام خريد ولي احترام نه،
مي توان کتاب خريد ولي دانش نه،
دارو خريد ولي سلامتي نه،
خانه خريد ولي زندگي نه
و بالاخره ، مي توان قلب خريد، ولي عشق را نه.
آموخته ام ... که تنها کسي که مرا در زندگي شاد مي کند کسي است که به من مي گويد: تو مرا شاد کردي
آموخته ام ... که مهربان بودن، بسيار مهم تر از درست بودن است
آموخته ام ... که هرگز نبايد به هديه اي از طرف کودکي، نه گفت
آموخته ام ... که هميشه براي کسي که به هيچ عنوان قادر به کمک کردنش نيستم دعا کنم
آموخته ام ... که مهم نيست که زندگي تا چه حد از شما جدي بودن را انتظار دارد، همه ما احتياج به دوستي داريم که لحظه اي با وي به دور از جدي بودن باشيم
آموخته ام ... که گاهي تمام چيزهايي که يک نفر مي خواهد، فقط دستي است براي گرفتن دست او، و قلبي است براي فهميدن وي
آموخته ام ... که راه رفتن کنار پدرم در يک شب تابستاني در کودکي، شگفت انگيزترين چيز در بزرگسالي است
آموخته ام ... که زندگي مثل يک دستمال لوله اي است، هر چه به انتهايش نزديکتر مي شويم سريعتر حرکت مي کند
آموخته ام ... که پول شخصيت نمي خرد
آموخته ام ... که تنها اتفاقات کوچک روزانه است که زندگي را تماشايي مي کند
آموخته ام ... که خداوند همه چيز را در يک روز نيافريد. پس چه چيز باعث شد که من بينديشم مي توانم همه چيز را در يک روز به دست بياورم
آموخته ام ... که چشم پوشي از حقايق، آنها را تغيير نمي دهد
آموخته ام ... که اين عشق است که زخمها را شفا مي دهد نه زمان
آموخته ام ... که وقتي با کسي روبرو مي شويم انتظار لبخندي جدي از سوي ما را دارد
آموخته ام ... که هيچ کس در نظر ما کامل نيست تا زماني که عاشق بشويم
آموخته ام ... که زندگي دشوار است، اما من از او سخت ترم
آموخته ام ... که لبخند ارزانترين راهي است که مي شود با آن، نگاه را وسعت داد

Louisa May Alcott
"My child, the troubles and temptations of your life are beginning, and may be many; but you can overcome and outlive them all if you learn to feel the strength and tenderness of your Heavenly Father as you do that of your earthly one. The more you love and trust Him, the nearer you will feel to Him, and the less you will depend on human power and wisdom. His love and care never tire or change, can never be taken from you, but may become the source of lifelong peace, happiness, and strength. Believe this heartily, and go to God with all your little cares, and hopes, and sins, and sorrows, as freely and confidingly as you come to your mother."

"Everyone would like to have stronger faith. By themselves, the scriptures may not strengthen your faith, but being faithful to what they teach, does. In other words, faith cannot be separated from faithfulness."

You’re Always There for Me
When the world comes crashing in
And chaos rules my mind,
I turn my heart to you, Lord,
And pure, sweet peace I find.
And chaos rules my mind,
I turn my heart to you, Lord,
And pure, sweet peace I find.
You lift me out of trouble
You comfort me in pain;
You nourish, heal and cleanse me,
Like cool, refreshing rain.
You comfort me in pain;
You nourish, heal and cleanse me,
Like cool, refreshing rain.
In times of joy and bliss,
When things are going right,
You lift me even higher,
And fill me with delight.
When things are going right,
You lift me even higher,
And fill me with delight.
You listen to my prayers;
You hear my every plea;
I’m safe because I know
You’re always there for me.
You hear my every plea;
I’m safe because I know
You’re always there for me.
