We look forward to the time when the power of love will replace the love of power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace. —William E. Gladstone (1809–1898)
Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely an absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people. —Jawaharlal Nehru (1889–1964)
Is Our Time Well Spent?
Once we recognize that simple “life maintenance” can chip away at our time in such huge blocks, we will see how vital it is that we don’t busy ourselves in vain.
We must invest our treasure wisely so that we obtain the best return in health, success, happiness, giving freely to those in need of God’s love.
Flowers of Heaven
“Contentment is one of the flowers of heaven, and if we would have it, it must be cultivated. … Paul says, ‘I have learned to be content, [suggesting that] he did not know how at one time. It cost him some pains to attain to the mystery of that great truth.”—Charles Spurgeon (1834–1892)
Time
Most of us spend a lot of time dreaming of the future, never realizing that a little of it arrives each day.
You may delay, but time will not. –Benjamin Franklin
No Exceptions
You should realize that you are naturally impatient because of the world you live in and the speed at which you are accustomed to things operating. We tend to expect “e-mail speed” answers to prayer.
Strengthen your faith. That’s the bottom line. Faith is the currency of the spiritual realm.
