God created marriage. No government subcommittee envisioned it. No social organization developed it. Marriage was conceived and born in the mind of God.
Love is not something you feel. It is something you do.

Practicing social distance before anyone knew what it meant, America’s drive-ins have been a fixture since arriving in New Jersey in 1933. Following World War II, the American landscape exploded with new drive-ins. By 1952, outdoor movie attendance exceeded indoor theaters for the first time. During the 1950s, the number of drive-ins peaked at 5,000 or so.
Where you stand depends where you sit.
A government for the people must depend for its success on the intelligence, the morality, the justice, and the interest of the people themselves.
His warrior image endures over the years
Witnessing a proud life, without any fears
His Native American culture continues to live on
Keeping rich and spiritual memories, never gone
Life’s simple ways will always shine bright
Displaying warrior bravery at every sight
Man and horse unite together as one
Riding his pony into the setting sun
Fierce in battle, defending his vast land
Adding to his legend, he does all he can
Younger men look up to him and follow in battle
Counting coup, his bravery becomes his mantel
This storied warrior transitions to an old man
Looking back proudly, honoring his last stand
His weathered face reveals a mighty, brave past
Lighting up eyes, with proud memories that last
The buffalo have disappeared for good
Ending a way of life, once proudly stood
Many of the old traditions are now gone
Reliving them through legend and song
The old warrior passes down past tribal history
Teaching a new generation, his ancient journey
The warrior no longer meets foes in battle today
Remembering his legacy, forever proud to say
The future belongs to people who can think, hustle, and create.
Patience is nothing more than a refined sense of confidence.

Like it or not, hardship is part of life. Becoming a Christian doesn’t change that fact.
From John 16:33: “I have said this to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you face persecution. But take courage; I have conquered the world!”
Life begins much like an empty book
Pages waiting as a tranquil brook
How will daily life compose each page?
Breathtaking words at every age
Words starting with childlike, joyful prose
Sentences fill with love, head to toes
Paragraphs arrive, smiling each day
First page finishes, much like crochet
Chapters now gather, picking up speed
Transmission accepts each tender reed
Pages adding up, never afraid
Days, weeks, months, years gather . . . no charade
Life reaches the twilight of its time
Not pausing, not even for halftime
Who will ever read this manuscript?
There’s time to add a final postscript
With empty pages, life’s book began
Words maturing, always in God’s plan
The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.
Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.
Some songs are just like tattoos for your brain . . . you hear them and they’re affixed to you.
Everybody sooner or later has to drop the luggage and the baggage of illusions.
