Weekend Words

Some thoughts to ponder...


"Without changing our patterns of thought, we will not be able to solve the problems that we created with our current patterns of thought."
- Albert Einstein

"If we don't change direction soon, we'll end up where we are going."
- Irwin Corey

"It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching."
- St Francis of Assisi

"I said to the man who stood at the Gate of the Year, "Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown."
And he replied, "Go out into the darkness, and put your hand into the Hand of God.  That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way."
- Minnie Louise Hoskins

"Quiet minds can't be perplexed or frightened but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace like a clock during a thunderstorm."
- Robert Louis Stevenson

"In our daily lives, we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but gratefulness that makes us happy."
- Albert Clarke

Jesus often took himself off to solitary places (Mark 1:35; Luke 5:16; Luke 6:12; Mark 6:46; Matthew 14:23)...to pray.  More food for thought perhaps?
