A mother’s happiness is like a beacon,

lighting up the future but reflected also on the past

in the guise of fond memories.

~ Honore de Balzac

 

 

 

You don’t really understand human nature

unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round

will wave at his parents every time around —

and why his parents will always wave back.

~ William D. Tammeus

 

 

 

 

Most mothers are

instinctive philosophers.

~ Harriet Beecher Stowe

Jesus prayed for his disciples, and then he said. "I ask not only on behalf of these, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one. As you, Father, are in me and I am in you, may they also be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. Father, I desire that those also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory, which you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.

"Righteous Father, the world does not know you, but I know you; and these know that you have sent me. I made your name known to them, and I will make it known, so that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them."

John 17:20-26
