Far away from the troubles I beseech

Faithfully and courageously follow those threads of understanding and direction."2 — Brad Wilcox

Our day-to-day lives should stand as immutable witness of our faith in Christ. — M. Russell Ballard

Jesus is gentle, but He is not weak. He loves the sinner but is absolutely intolerant of sin. He is not a negotiator. He is Lord.

Lord, help me to be still before you. Lead me to a greater vision of who you are, and in so doing, may I see myself - the good, the bad, and the ugly.
