He came to heal and to teach       suffering men. For one who wanted to make a display the thing would have       been just to appear and dazzle the beholders. But for Him Who came to heal       and to teach the way was not merely to dwell here, but to put Himself at       the disposal of those who needed Him, and to be manifested according as       they could bear it, not vitiating the value of the Divine appearing by       exceeding their capacity to receive it."              St. Athanasius the Great              "But I am poor and needy; Make haste to me, O God! You are my help and my       deliverer; O Lord, do not delay."       Psalm 70:5              Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
