“Suffering in life can uncover untold depths of character and unknown strength for service. People who go through life

Suffering, on the other hand, tends to plow up the surface of our lives to uncover the depths that provide greater strength of purpose and accomplishment. Only deeply plowed earth can yield bountiful harvests.”

“Thanksgiving is recognition of a debt that cannot be paid. We express thanks, whether or not we are able otherwise to reimburse the giver.”

“Children must be taught obedience just as much as they need to be taught to read and write.”
