May this hymn inspire and direct your heart in 2012:
Another year is dawning: dear Father, let it be,
In working or in waiting, another year with Thee;

Another year of mercies, of faithfulness and grace;

Another year of leaning upon Thy...

The Man in the Arena
Nelson Mandela passed this extract of the speech by Teddy Roosevelt to to Francois Pienaar, captain of the South African rugby team, before the start of the 1995 Rugby World Cup. South Africa went on to win the World Cup that year! Amazing inspiration! Enjoy! Catch the movie “invitcus” if you can, which depicts this story.

She was well yesterday but her fever came back again.
Still trusting the Lord to be her healing but I was hoping that He would give me an answer to why it is taking longer than expected.
Then I chance upon this quote which gave me the answer:
“I know now, Lord, why you utter no answer. You are yourself the answer. Before your face questions die away. What other answer would suffice? -...
