Did You Know...

...that George Washington said the following?

"Human happiness and moral duty are inseparably connected."

Thought of the Week

A good conscience and good health are inextricably related.

A small boy's definition of a conscience is "something that makes me tell my mother before my sister does."

On the topic of conscience, William Shakespeare said "...a peace above all earthly dignities, a still and quiet conscience."

On the topic of conscience, Tryon Edwards said "Conscience is merely our own judgment of the right and wrong of our actions, and so can never be a safe guide unless enlightened by the Word of God."

Looking Back

Uncle Rube,
Buys a tube,
In one week,
Looks so sleek
Like a sheik!
