Against The Tide
The oarsman, trusting in Me, does not lean on his oars and start to drift with the tide, trusting to the current. Nay, more often--once I have shown the way--it is against the tide you must direct all your efforts. And even when difficulties come, it is by your effort that they will be surmounted....

Why I Became A Christian And Why No One Can Convince Me I Am Not
I am making up my Christmas card list, the list of friends, families and acquaintances, from my address books (I tend to change them throughout the year as they get messy), to whom I want to re-connect, even if we've drifted apart.
