Chances

If you're never scared or embarrassed or hurt, 

it means you never take any chances.

A Chance To Start All Over -- Again

"The solution may not give you everything you want.

Sometimes, it may give you nothing but
a chance to start all over again.

But whatever little it gives you is much more
than you give yourself by
letting your emotions tear you apart. "

-- Dr. George S. Stevenson

God's Opinion

. . . A certain realism reveals that each of us in the lost one.
The assurance that the Father wants us and sends Christ to recover us is most tender and heartening.
We may have an opinion, but we need another to rescue us, even if we have not dared hope for such a chance.

-- Sharon Mollerus

Loving Father, help me to realize that your Son Jesus

is seeking for me when I am feeling troubled and lost.
