And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
-Hebrews 11:6

The man who has nothing more than a kind of Sunday religion — whose Christianity is like his Sunday clothes put on once a week, and then laid aside — such a man cannot, of course, be expected to care about growth in grace.
-J.C. Ryle

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything. Thankful. Grateful. Blessed.

The Constitution’s first three words—We the People—affirm that the government of the United States exists to serve its citizens.
