Pain and suffering are the dark strands through the tapestry of your life, providing the shadows that give depth and dimension to the masterpiece God is fashioning within you.

The poor never have enough for themselves ... but always have enough to give away.

God has no favorites.

The houses people live in reflect their opinions of themselves.

Emotional and psychological pain were to become, perhaps, the most powerful force in molding the course of my life. For some people, pain and hurt breed bitterness and cynicism. For others it causes them to look deeply into themselves and into life itself in an attempt to understand the meaning beneath seemingly capricious or arbitrary happenings.

... but a dream is nothing more than reality shorn of cynicism.

Only the individual knows to what God is calling him.
