“Disappointments are part of life; we can’t always have our own way, and we need to learn to separate what is significant from what is merely annoying. Only in heaven will we be free of all disappointments and failures. A friend of mine says, “Oh well, a hundred years from now it won’t make any difference!”

“The Christian should stand out like a sparkling diamond against a rough background. He should be more wholesome than anyone else.

He should laugh and be radiant, but he should refuse to allow the world to pull him down to its level.”
