I Peter 5:8-10: "Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings. And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast."
If your parents are still alive and were married to each other, are they still married to each other? #survey
“The Christian doctrine of suffering explains a curious fact about the world. The settled happiness and security which we desire, God withholds from us by the very nature of the world; but joy, pleasure, & merriment, He has scattered broadcast. Our Father refreshes us on the journey with some pleasant inns, but will not encourage us to mistake them for home.” -C.S. Lewis, “The Problem of Pain”
@TruthSandwich If Republicans want to govern, then they should actually do the work of governing. Shouting "do it my way!" until they get their way is not how this works.
