“IN THE FULL FACE OF AFFLICTIONS IT IS HARD TO SEE ANY SENSE TO THINGS THAT BEFALL US AND WE WANT TO QUESTION THE FAIRNESS OF A FAITHFUL GOD. HOWEVER, THESE MOMENTS CAN BE THE MOST MEANINGFUL OF OUR LIVES.” – Charles Hembree
“WHEN ONE DOOR OF HAPPINESS CLOSES, ANOTHER OPENS, BUT OFTEN WE LOOK SO LONG AT THE CLOSED DOOR THAT WE DO NOT SEE THE ONE THAT HAS BEEN OPENED FOR US.” – HELEN KELLER

John answered,
‘The man with two tunics should share with him who has none, and the one who has food should do the same.’
2. Tax collectors also came to be baptized.
‘Teacher,’ they asked, ‘what should we do?’
‘Don’t collect any more than you are required to,’
he told them.
3. Then some soldiers asked him, ‘And what should we do?’
He replied,
‘Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely –
be content with your pay.'”
