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

‪Without Jesus, I suffer from Divine inadequacy. ‬

‪No toubstone can justify a selfish life.‬

‪Without God your life will always be emptier than you want to tollereate; yet no matter how you try to satisfy it, you can’t it any other way, but Jesus. 

‪Happiness is a byproduct of loving God. ‬

‪Where God leads you, may not always want to go; but it is where you will always want to be!‬

‪Happiness follows Faith wherever it goes. ‬

‪Joy is better than happiness but why not have both?‬

‪In Jesus is all of the joy you can stand and all of the happiness you can endure. ‬

Your Father knows what you need
before you ask. 
Yet, He tells us to pray always. 
Why ...not for Him to know but for us to understand Him and His reply. 

‪It is heart control that is needed...in order to make gun control work. 
It is the heart that controls the gun. 

‪Being wise beyond your years comes seeing beyond what is in front of you. ‬

‪The “Now” is the biggest enemy of making a plan for tomorrow.‬

‪Temptation is often about trying to get what you want now, instead of wait for when you should have it. ‬

‪Contentment comes from wanting less and enjoy more of what you have!

‬‪Tears are just often prayers without words. ‬

‪One of life’s biggest challenges is to love someone when they are hurting you, purposely or without realizing it. Welcome to marriage and parenting. ‬

‪Without love, one becomes extremely selfish, and eventually very unhappy. ‬

‪The thorn of hope is often painful. ‬

The greatest treasure you have is not a thing but a person or persons who you love and who love you. 

If you put strings on a gift it becomes a reward, a reward brings a challenge, marriage is both a gift and a reward.
