“Joy isn't grounded in our circumstances; it is grounded in the unchanging character of God.”
“On open ground, do not try to block the enemy's way. On the ground of intersecting highways, join hands with your allies.”
“We keep on burying our dead/We keep on planting their bones in the ground/But they won't grow/The sun doesn't help/The rain doesn't help.”
