Now what you need to remember is that the Lord is your father, whether you choose to own Him or not; and He has a right to your love, and your help.

Quotable
I think sometimes our Heavenly Father does just as we do with the children. He lets us stumble in a place where it is not too hard, so that we will learn what it is to obey.

A Mothers’ Day Thought
God gives us but one mother. Remember, she has borne for you that which no other human being has or can.
Remember that in the natural course of events the grave will in a few years, at most, close over her, leaving you behind.
Remember that when she is gone, you will think of her faults and her failings with pitiful tenderness, and want to cover them from all human eyes.
And remember, also, that the deepest sting which sorrow has for us is hidden in those soul-harrowing words, “if I only had!” or “had not!”
It would be blessed to live, no matter what the provocation, so that, standing beside an open grave, those words could have no sting for us.
