A real man finishes a job he takes on, and he doesn’t expect to be nursemaided along just because life throws a few potholes in front of him.”
–Douglas Hirt (“The Kid”)
“Tears of joy will stream down their faces, and I will lead them home with great care. They will walk beside quiet streams and on smooth [trails] where they will not stumble. For I am Israel’s father, and Ephraim is my oldest child.”
–Jeremiah 31:9 (NLT)
