“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.
– Jesus Christ, Mat 10:34–38 (NKJV)
Word of Encouragement
All my life I have risen regularly at four o’clock and have gone into the woods and talked to God. There He gives me my orders for the day.
