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

‪Regrets are pains that I decided are worth feeling over and over again. ‬

‪Doing good and wanting to good are never cut from the same cloth. ‬

‪Grace came before praise, praise only helps us give words to Grace.‬

‪Love gives, hate takes away, pretty simple isn’t it?‬

Love brings satisfaction to your life;  hate brings a greater selfishness. 

Peace that passes all understanding is not given to pass; it’s residue is always with you even in the worst of times. 

You experiences with God will be your comfort when despair is ravaging outside your heart’s door.  

Anger is disappointment filled with wrath. 

You get the decide how your circumstances affect you, but not what they will be.

‪We often think it is easier to live in harmony with our expectations, than it is to live with God’s expectations. ‬

‪The reason we think that way is that you want our wishes often more than we want God’s expectations. But His way is easy and His burdens are light, yours...not so much.‬

‪Thankfulness mixed with Grace is the best soil to grow character.‬

‪Whatever you can’t appreciate becomes useless to you.‬

‪A forgiving heart bears the best fruit. ‬

‪Without love nothing grows in you life, but thorns.‬

One wife said "The way to a man’s heart may be through his stomach, but there seems to be no way to get to his brain!"
