On this New Year's Eve as you think about resolutions and fresh starts here's a couple of thoughts to consider:

"Be always at war with your vices, at peace with yourneighbors, and let each new year find you a better man."                                                                                          -Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin

"Souls are nade sweet not by taking [ill tempers] out, but by putting something in-a great Love, a new Spirit, the Spirit of Christ.  Christ, the Spirit of Christ; interpenetrating ours, sweetens, purifies, transforms all.  This only can eradicate what is wrong,...renovate and regenerate, and rehabilitate the inner self.

Henry Drummond

Will-power does not change us.


Time does not change us.

Christ does.

Therefore:  'Let that mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus.'"  

              -Henry Drummond  (1851-1897) 
             The Greatest Thing in the World
