Dear Lord,
I have been re-reading the record of the Rich Young Ruler and his obviously wrong choice. But it has set me to thinking.
No matter how much wealth he had, he could not --

"Good and evil both increase at compound interest. That is why the little decisions you and I make every day are of such infinite importance. The smallest good act today is the capture of a strategic point from which, a few months later, you may be able to go on to victories you never dreamed of.
