The Ancient Law of Life
The natural world is filled with inspirational reminders of how life is meant to be lived. We are here to reveal the eternal. We are here to let love radiate without concern for results.

Tarry and Watch
The failure to tarry and watch in times of darkness, stress and difficulty is the single most significant deterrent to man's happiness and God's fulfillment on earth.

Most Sacred
Every man must determine for himself what he holds to be most sacred. Some men set their hearts on achievement, others on procurement. Some love their lives to the end, others lay down their lives for their friends. Some long for attention, others anonymity. The centering of one's heart, it seems, rests on the individual. …
