Grace means you are no longer required.
Open the door of joy and you will find peace.People are not drawn to the church because the church does not suffer well.
What I do becomes the billboard of my life.Grace cannot be comprehended, only appreciated.
A Smoky Mountain HI
Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com

War is an example of corporate anger.
Even a just cause needs anger to fuel it.How often you do right may not be known for a while; how often you do wrong will be easier to remember on earth.
A shared blessing is growing love.
Grace helps you live life like you should, rather than how you would.

God is in charge of the boundaries of your life.
Humility is the only antidote for pride.
Pride is the greed of character.
If you have all of the grace you need, you don’t understand Grace!
Sanctification has a beginning but has no end on earth.

Truth is for you to live above the pain caused by the false.
Fate is only for the hopeless. God's will is for the belivers!
Luck only exists in the minds of the faithless.
God provides no luck, only blessings.
Luck is a plan for bypassing God

Ignoring the truth is to apply for ignorance.
Truth does not need your approval.Truth is never absent, only set aside.
Happiness is not necessarily the absence of pain.Joy comes from knowing that happiness does exist.

How good can I be is the wrong question. How good can God make me is the correct question.
Forgiveness is a precursor to happiness.Self-sacrifice for no reason is purposeless.
It is not necessary to think less of yourself to think more of others.Fleeing the truth only puts you further behind.

Wrong only prospers when right is ignored by the masses.
To “catch a falling star” one must be on guard at night. What is next to impossible is still possible.
Beauty without character is "Double ugly". The value of being important is less, that the importance of being valuable.

Doing right is right, even is does not feel right.
It is better to love than to remain unloving.Only measure yourself from where you are today.
Pay attention to your GPS (God Prompted Service.)If you do what is right, wrong will always resist you.
Monday, January 23, 2012
Happiness rises out of a careful consideration of your blessings.
Forgiveness clears the clogged arteries of your spiritual heart.
Living is your only opportunity to persue happiness.
Pain demands your attention and saps your faith, but need not define your life.
A little good covers a lot of bad

Walk boldly where Satan says you can’t and with trepidation were he says you can.
People often confuse “cannot” with “will not.”
While the “price may be right,” the cost may not be.
A true songs of joy still must be heard with the heart.
There are more opportunities than opportunists.
Saturday, January 21, 2012
Faith and hope bring life; forfeit neither.
Friends see value where others see failure.
Negotiate ideas, not principles.
Love keeps on giving, while like, surrenders at first fight.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and in the mind of the believer.
Friday, January 20, 2012
Flattery is often a smokescreen for jealousy.
We are born with a desire to do good and a propensity to do wrong.Love only comforts those willing to be comforted.
Friends are still an anchor, even when the boat is gone.A twisted truth is a dastardly brew.

God-Speak” is understood in all languages, but often best said by you, by doing.

Christians often receive, before they give, because they will give.
