"and this too shall pass away..." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! - how consoling in the depths of affliction!" - Abraham Lincoln
I am a fortunate and blessed husband, proud daddy and a growing man who is not afraid of and at peace with being damaged goods. It's true no matter how you slice it, dice it, analyze it or spiritualize it. The challenge is how you day by day overcome it and not let it overcome you. Isaiah 42:3 "a bruised reed shall He not break, and a smoking flax shall He not quench:"

To see Jesus...
And for you and me, too, that will be the greatest of all sights. When we awake from the dream men call life, when we put off the image of the earth and break the bonds of time and mortality, when the scales of time and sense have fallen from our eyes and the garment of corruption has been put off and when this mortality has put on immortality and this corruption has put on incorruption and we awake in the everlasting morning, that will be the sight that will stir us and hold us. ~ Clarence Macartney
