Why Did God Give Us Emotions?

Emotions are such a mysterious gift.  They take us to heights of ecstasy.  They dash us on the rocks of despair.  They can bind us together and tear us apart.  They can move some to noble acts of courage and self-sacrifice, and in others, they are the force behind terrible acts of evil and destruction.

Are You Facing a Mountain of Struggles?

Many of us will look back on the current economic crisis as a defining event in our lives.  Our nation faces an uphill climb as we seek to correct many of the mistakes that brought us to this point.  This is not the first major obstacle the American people have sought to overcome, and it won't be the last.  Now is the time for us to embrace the wisdom of those who remember what it means to pull together as a community with committed faith in God that helps us keep climbing the mountains and obstacles of life as well as experience the victories achieved along the way.

Novels, poetry, and short stories continually lose ground to lighter fare -- to shallower but more social media, like Facebook and Twitter-where all our friends, real and virtual, can add their own dab to the never-ending conversation.
