I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
~ Revelation 2:8

Children are a gift from the LORD; they are a reward from him. How happy is the man whose quiver is full of them!
~ Psalm 127

Happy are those who are strong in the LORD, who set their minds on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. When they walk through the Valley of Weeping, it will become a place of refreshing springs, where pools of blessing collect after the rains! ~ Psalm 85:5

Nothing in your life is so insignificant, so small, that God cannot be found at its center.
~ Mother Frances Dominica

We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life. But those who make their journey home across time & miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands. ~ Kristi Larson

There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in.
~ Graham Greene

Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.~ Anatole France

Hope has a way of turning its face to you just when you least expect it. You walk in a room. You look out a window, and something there leaves you breathless. You say to yourself, "It's been awhile since I felt this, but it feels like it might be hope." ~ Sara Groves

So walk down this mountain
With your HEART HELD HIGH
Follow in the footsteps
of your maker
With this love that's gone
before you
And these people at your side
If you offer up your broken cup
You will taste
the meaning of this life
~Bebo Norman
