#Renewal

"If there is nothing new under the sun, at least the sun itself is always new, always re-creating itself out of its own inexhaustible fire."

"God uses broken things. It takes broken soil to produce a crop, broken clouds to give rain, broken grain to give bread, broken bread to give strength. It is the broken alabaster box that gives forth perfume. It is Peter, weeping bitterly, who returns to greater power than ever."

"The quarrels of lovers are the renewal of love."

"I can hardly wait for tomorrow, it means a new life for me each and every day."

"Easter is meant to be a symbol of hope, renewal, and new life."

"The first step in conforming our intellect to God's truth is to die to our vanity, pride, and craving for respect from colleagues and the public. We must let go of the worldly motivations that drive us, praying to be motivated solely by a genuine desire to submit our minds to God's Word - and then to use that knowledge in service to others."

"And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer."
