Obverse Coin Quotes & Sayings

We find the vast majority of people in every country believing that there will be a time when this world will become perfect, when there will be no disease, nor death, nor unhappiness, nor wickedness.

The wrath of God abides all the time a man persists in the way that leads away from God; the second he turns, he is faced with His love. — Oswald Chambers

It marked a turning point for me. It marked the point where I recognized that I must never - not even when he was 'well' again - expect from Didi what one normally expects from a friend.
