kids, and she hated it. She was born with a cleft palate and had to
bear the jokes and stares of cruel children who teased her non-stop

I received an e-mail the other day with the subject reading "How did we ever survive?" I don’t know who authored it.
Looking back, it’s hard to believe that we have lived as long as we have. As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags. Riding in the back of a pickup on a

Turning Point (from Our Daily Bread)
The surrender of one’s will to Jesus is essential to a life of joy and victory. Oswald Chambers called this “giving up my right to myself.” We hold nothing back—no earthly life, no material gain, no pride-filled position—but simply say, “Jesus, do with my life

There’s an old Indian Fable I heard recently. A water bearer had two large water pots which he carried on either end of a pole slung across his shoulders. One of the pots had a crack in it, so every day as he carried water to his master’s house he arrived with one full pot and one only half full.
