16 THINGS WE MUST BELIEVE, ACCEPT AND DO AT ALL TIMES AS BELIEVERS 1.            Happiness is like a kiss. In order to get any good out of it, you have to give it to someone else. Whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 2.            The failure to stand for what is morally right is the prelude to be a victim of what is criminally wrong. Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. 3.           ...

WHERE THERE IS A VISION, THE PEOPLE FLOURISH

WHERE THERE IS A VISION, THE PEOPLE FLOURISH Dreams do not come out of the blues, but rather from the mind of God. God matches the dream with the dreamer, someone who will receive it, respect it, embrace it, claim it, live for it, and be willing to die for it. God has given o us one of HIS greatest gifts, a dream. Yet it is up to us to receive it and let it grow, or to reject it and kill it. Learn from these people. JESSE OWENS Jesse Owens was a world-class athlete who was told that because he was African American there was no way he...

One day, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress.

Then, the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The...
