“Our once great western Christian civilization is dying. If this matters to followers of Jesus Christ, then we must set aside our denominational differences and work together to strengthen the things that remain and reclaim what has been lost. Evangelicals and Catholics must stand together to re-establish that former Christian culture and moral consensus. We have the numbers and the organization but the question is this: Do we have the will to win this present spiritual battle for Jesus Christ against secularism? Will we prayerfully and cooperatively work toward a new Christian spiritual revival ― or will we choose to hunker down in our churches and denominationalisms and watch everything sink into the spiritual and moral abyss of a New Dark Age?” - Mark Davis Pickup

IF I HAD ONLY 1 PIECE OF ADVISE FOR THE SICK AND DISABLED

If I were only to give one piece of advise to an individual facing the prospect of disability or chronic illness, it would be this: Put your trust in Jesus Christ. You will find that He is the center of all that exists.[1] Once you have grasped that beautiful mystery, everything else in life becomes an irrelevance and a diversion. I have discovered that even in my darkest hours Christ has been with me. The beautiful mystery at the center of existence is the light of Christ.[2]

 Once you have discovered the Light of the world, let it shine for all to see. Jesus Christ is the Light of the world, there is no other.[3] It is so sweet to trust in Him regardless of our circumstances.
