world who-we-are way
We all have different gifts, so we all have different ways of saying to the world who we are.
gun views two
It's very dramatic when two people come together to work something out. It's easy to take a gun and annihilate your opposition, but what is really exciting to me is to see people with differing views come together and finally respect each other.
mistake character perfect
What interests me so much about the characters of the Bible is that they make mistakes but God uses them anyway, in important ways. Nobody's perfect, but God can even use our imperfection.
people boston-marathon looks
Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.
mean helping-others winning
What matters in this life is more than winning for ourselves. What really matters is helping others win too. Even if it means slowing down and changing our course now and then.
real blessing issues
The real issue in life is not how many blessings we have, but what we do with our blessings. Some people have many blessings and hoard them. Some have few and give everything away.
love-you two listening
Listening is a very active awareness of the coming together of at least two lives. Listening, as far as I'm concerned, is certainly a prerequisite of love. One of the most essential ways of saying 'I love you' is being a receptive listener.

That unique gift, of course, is the gift of ourselves. Whatever we can do to give that gift, and to help others receive it, is worth the challenge of all our human endeavor.
fear grief communication
Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.
heaven connections courses
The connections we make in the course of a life--maybe that's what heaven is.
senior college differences
Whether we're a preschooler or a young teen, a graduating college senior or a retired person, we human beings all want to know that we're acceptable, that our being alive somehow makes a difference in the lives of others.
people feelings world
The world needs a sense of worth, and it will achieve it only by its people feeling that they are worthwhile.
differences space world
Love and trust, in the space between what’s said and what’s heard in our life, can make all the difference in the world.
proud done fourth
I'm proud of you for the times you came in second, or third, or fourth, but what you did was the best you have ever done
