June 30, 2009Desperate Faith
June 24, 2009“Desperation is better than despair. Remember, our faith did not create our desperate days. Faith’s work is to sustain us through those days and to solve them. Yet the only alternative to desperate faith is despair. Faith holds on and prevails.”

These Pains and Troubles
June 23, 2009“These pains and troubles here are like the type that printers set. When we look at them, we see them backwards, and they seem to have no meaning. But up there, when the Lord God prints out our life to come, we will find they make splendid reading.”
- Martin Luther (1483-1546)
