I think that in a year I may retire. I cannot take my money with me when I die and I wish to enjoy it with my family while I live. I should prefer living in Germany to any other country though I am an American and am loyal to my country.
I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life a man who had good friends fine family - and I don't think I could ask for anything more than that actually.
A family is a place where principles are hammered and honed on the anvil of everyday living.
It is easier to have faith that God will support each House of Hospitality and Farming Commune and supply our needs in the way of food and money to pay bills than it is to keep a strong hearty living faith in each individual around us - to see Christ in him.
One of the joys of being a Christian or being a person of faith is that you believe deep down that death isn't the worst thing you know. Not living your life: that's the worst thing. And death is not it's not all it's cracked up to be. It's not it's not the end of the world.
I stepped out on faith to follow my lifelong dream of being an author. I made real sacrifices and took big risks. But living it seems to me is largely about risk.
There are more people living in Lower Manhattan now than before the terrorist attacks. That's faith for you. There's such a strong spirit here.
But how odd that in this heathen nation of empty pews where churches' bare ruined choirs are converted into luxury loft living a Labour government - yes a Labour government - is deliberately creating a huge expansion of faith schools.
If faith produce no works I see That faith is not a living tree. Thus faith and works together grow No separate life they never can know. They're soul and body hand and heart What God hath joined let no man part.
Today we often think that before we start living a religious life we have first to accept the creedal doctrines and that before one can have any comprehension of the loyalty and trust of faith one must first force one's mind to accept a host of incomprehensible doctrines. But this is to put the cart before the horse.
I come now to tell you for what I am brought here to die and to give you an account of my faith which I shall do as in the sight of the living God before whom I am shortly to stand.
And that's the great thing about living the Christian life and trying to live by faith is you're trying to get better every day. You're trying to improve.
If there was no faith there would be no living in this world. We could not even eat hash with any safety.
It's faith in something and enthusiasm for something that makes a life worth living.
Although a man may wear fine clothing if he lives peacefully and is good self-possessed has faith and is pure and if he does not hurt any living being he is a holy man.
Amidst the confusion of the times the conflicts of conscience and the turmoil of daily living an abiding faith becomes an anchor to our lives.
Faith means living with uncertainty - feeling your way through life letting your heart guide you like a lantern in the dark.
Trust is to human relationships what faith is to gospel living. It is the beginning place the foundation upon which more can be built. Where trust is love can flourish.
Faith is a living daring confidence in God's grace so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.
If patience is worth anything it must endure to the end of time. And a living faith will last in the midst of the blackest storm.
Y'know the real reason why I was such a failure in the sense of being unable to make any sort of a living was because I was really not motivated. I had no motivation.
But whatever my failure I have this thing to remember - that I was a pioneer in my profession just as my grandfathers were in theirs in that I was the first man in this section to earn his living as a writer.
I'm living life as best I can - but I'm not exempt from failure and making bad choices.
My story of success and failure is not just about music and being famous. It's about living and loving and trying to find purpose in this crazy world.
