"Nuggets" that spoke to Doris

After I had shared my "Rhi-minders" I found a bunch of quotes & scripture that I've noted as well. It's like..."Pinterest" before Pinterest when it comes to quotes, words, etc. This blog is more of a catch-all for basically whatever fits at the moment. It's a lot easier for me to take from my journals (handwritten) & post them since I'm not thinking of an audience when I do that. You get more of a raw version of me & I'm quite okay with that. So...having said that, I was going to post some of the quotes & scriptures that I've held onto...but tonight, I was going through some of my Grandparents books & found quotes & scripture that my Gramma had written & saved. I won't post it all at once. But I love to wonder what was going on in her life as she captured these words & what they meant to her in that moment... This stuff is a treat, finding these little gems won't last forever... Enjoy!

Barnetts book of quotes

When the love of power is overcome by the power of love, then there will be peace.

Who is convinced again of his will is of the same opinion still.

Pride blew it; let humility have a chance.

Pride halts progress.

A sense of humor is a sign of health.

Anger is. Rage need not be.

God is the architect. I am the builder.

Feelings are facts.

Courage is fear that has said its prayers.

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But, when I became a man, I put away the things of a child. I Corinthians 13:11
