Thanks for visiting my personal Blog. It's constantly growing & changing. So be sure to come back and see what's new!

From Dr. Albert Schweitzer :

"Any religion or philosophy which is not based on a respect for life is not a true religion or philosophy." . . . "Just as white light consists of colored rays, so Reverence for Life contains all the components of ethics: love, kindness, sympathy, empathy, peacefulness, and a power to forgive."

Looking Behind

“And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back is fit for the Kingdom of God.” Luke 9: 61-62 (Literal translation from Aramaic)

“The disciples of Jesus were not to look behind and be discouraged by the few converts which had been gained, because the work of the gospels at the outset was to progress slowly. But they were to look forward to see the big work ahead.” From George M. Lamsa Idioms in the Bible Explained and A key to the Original Gospels. Pp-98

It is easy to keep a ball rolling; but, difficult to get it started.
