Asking for Forgiveness

 
 

There’s a big difference between “I’m sorry” and “please forgive me”.
“I’m sorry” communicates sympathy, regret, but no true remorse. “Please forgive me” lays bare the heart and conveys humility. It shows that you understand the wrong you have done and desire to make it right. To ask for forgiveness is to see a need for [...]

Who am I?

 

   
Who am I?  What will I do?  Who will I become?
      

Every teenager goes through this.  An identity crisis.  When you were little, it didn’t matter.  You could kick a soccer ball, so you were an athlete.  You could draw a picture of your mom that looked remotely human, so you were an artist.  You enjoyed [...]

Part 2: A Girl’s Response to Chivalry

Your hands are covered with flour, and there’s a spot of it on your nose (though you don’t know it!). On the plate in your hands lies a slice of homemade bread, fresh from the oven.

The Bible

“Infidels for eighteen hundred years have been refuting and overthrowing this book, and yet [it] stands today as solid as a rock.  Its circulation increases and it is more loved and cherished and read today than ever before. Infidels, with all their assaults, make about as much impression on this book as a man with [...]

One Word of Thine

 One word of Thine can calm my fearing soul,
Thou whisperest “Peace”; I cannot be dismayed.
For Thine Assurance over me still rolls
And on Thy Rock I am secure and stayed.
One word of Thine can calm each doubt and fear,
Thou whisperest “Peace”; I know that Thou art near.
 
One word of Thine can bring my wand’ring heart
