Broken Things
God uses broken things.
It takes broken soil to produce a crop, broken clouds to give rain,
broken grain to give bread, broken bread to give strength.
It is the broken alabaster box that gives forth the perfume...
it is Peter, weeping, bitterly,
who returns to greater power than ever.
by Vance Havner
Proverbs Of Love
--One can be unhappy by oneself, but to be truly tormented,
one must love.
--Love is harder to accept than to give.
--To love is to embrace life. To love fully is to embrace both
death and life.
--The secret of happiness is simple: be loving, giving,
caring.
Why, then, are so many unhappy?
Because they are afraid.
--Love only yourself, and you are alone.
Love only one other, and the two of you are alone.
Love only your family, and your family is alone.
Love only your nation, and your nation is alone.
There can be no communion, not even with yourself,
except through love of God.
Author Nicholas Gordon
On a
Positive Note
I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life
does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.
I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she
handles these three things: 1) a rainy day, 2) lost luggage, 3) tangled
Christmas tree lights.
I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll
miss them when they're gone from your life.
I've learned that "making a living" is not the same as "making a life."
I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on
both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.
I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if you
focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing
the best you can, happiness will find you.
I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually
make the right decision.
I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.
People love that human touch - holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly
pat on the back.
I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
I've learned that you should pass this along to someone you care about. I
just did. Sometimes you just need a little something to make you smile.
Finally, always remember, people will forget what you said, people will
forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them
feel.....
