"We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they are good for us - they help us learn to be patient. And patience develops strength of character in us and helps us trust God more each time we use it until finally our hope and faith are strong and steady. Then, when that happens, we are able to hold our heads high no matter what happens and know that all is well, for we know how dearly God loves us, and we feel this warm love everywhere within us because God has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with His love." 
"Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the mind and healing to the body."

Her dream of being an acress finally came to fruition.
Who said this? 
"Give me liberty, or give me death."

a) Daniel Webster
b) Patrick Henry
c) Paul Revere
One night, a lady stumbled into the police station with a black eye. She claimed she heard a noise in her back yard and ran out swinging her rolling pin. The next thing she knew, she was hit in the eye and knocked out cold.
An officer was sent to her house to investigate, and he returned a half hour later with a black eye as well.
"Did you get hit by the same person?" his captain asked.
"No sir," he replied. "I stepped on the same rake."
God, I want You to fill my eyes, permeate my thoughts, and change my behavior to be like You. I will focus on You, God - now and always. Amen
Until next time . . .
