“It always amazes me how when we’re sure we’ve lost something for good, it winds up finding us.”

“God gives us enemies to make sure there’ll always be someone around who’s interested in how we’re doing.”

“We’re so rarely called on to be Christians, but when we are, we’ve got men like Atticus to go for us.”

“We’ve lost something vital, I tell you. When we lost it, we lost the ability to make good decisions.

Have we forgotten that we were the ones who set this current flowing?”

“We often forget that WE ARE NATURE. Nature is not something separate from us. So when we say that we have lost our connection to nature, we’ve lost our connection to ourselves.”

“Father has taught me that when something is lost, whether dear or not, giving up the search is sometimes best and often enough the lost article finds its owner.”
