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

Going from where you are is the only way forward.
Pray before you say and you may not have to pray for forgiveness quite as often.
Practice rarely makes you perfect but it may make you more acceptable.
Whenever you can open the dullness of mundane lives to their possibilities and places hope within their grasp, you have become a leader.
"The sky is the limit" only if you do not know how and to Whom to pray.

Some things seem better left unsaid, but need to be said anyway.
The things that should be left unsaid are often the first things said.
Too often the "room for doubt", in a person's life, is the largest and most heavily populated room in their lives.
Too often we are rested and refreshed by our own opinions.
Why is it that the first thing out of my mouth is the last thing wanted to say?
“Church rules” are the way we brand our sheep.
“Biblical rules” are the way God brand His sheep.
“Love” is the brand of Christianity. Love Me first, says the Father, then love one another.
 A Christian's life is the testimony of Jesus’ life.
Guilt may change your behavior but rarely changes you heart; only Jesus can do that.
