The most important thing to do is really listen.
Never miss an opportunity to teach; when you teach others, you teach yourself.
Itzhak Perlman (born 1945) is an Israeli-American violinist.
From John 3:16-17: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him may not perish but may have eternal life. Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world but in order that the world might be saved through Him.”
Witnessing distant light
Christ in Bethlehem born
Journey makes way toward cross
Thorns of man’s transgressions worn
Raising light, seeing grace
Father’s love bears His Son
Calvary moves from shadows
Hope’s fulfillment shall be done
Marking truth’s difference
Faith’s Messiah shows up
Destiny’s light serves pardons
Mercy flows from Heaven’s cup
Leaving days of darkness
God’s blueprint marks Christ’s way
Man’s sinful spirit transformed
Light nourishes peace each day
Exchanging world’s sorrows
Savior’s forgiving light
Every iniquity paid
Redemption’s dynamic flight
From John 3:19-21: “And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and people loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil. For all who do evil hate the light and do not come to the light, so that their deeds may not be exposed. But those who do what is true come to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that their deeds have been done in God.”

The longer you delay, the more your sin gets strength and rooting. If you cannot bend a twig, how will you be able to bend it when it is a tree.
From James 1:14-15: “But one is tempted by one’s own desire, being lured and enticed by it; then, when desire has conceived, it engenders sin, and sin, when it is fully grown, gives birth to death.”
Richard Baxter (1615-1691) was an English-born, Puritan pastor and Christian theologian.
Afternoon nap calls
Down, down for well-earned respite—
Up, up . . . chores to do
Sitting on park bench
Dreaming of ice cream sundae—
Time for exercise
Child’s sparkling clean room
Tornado waits in shadows—
Orderly chaos

There is a certain calmness which arrives when a writer turns scattered letters into a delightful gathering of prose.
