Barney's favorite sayings
We printed these sayings out and put them on Dad's memory table. He had
put them up on his mirror where he could read them often.
Cancer is so limited...
it cannot cripple love
it cannot corrode faith
it cannot eat away peace
it cannot destroy confidence
it cannot kill friendship
it cannot shut out memories
it cannot silence courage
it cannot invade the soul
it cannot reduce eternal life
it cannot quench the spirit
it cannot lessen the power of the Resurrection
David C. Enger
A Friend
A friend is a person
Who will help you in the hour of sickness
Who will lend you a dollar without deducting the interest
Who will help you uphill when you are sliding down
Who will defend you in the hour when others speak evil of you
Who will believe in your innocence until you admit your guilt
Who will say behind your back what he says to your face
Who will shake hands with you wherever he meets you, even though you wear
patches, and
Who will do all these things without expecting any return.
Dorothy C. Retsloff
Trust
Trust Him when dark doubts assail you,
Trust Him when your strength is small
Trust Him when to simply trust Him
Seems the hardest thing of all.
Trust Him. He is ever faithful.
Trust Him, for His will is best.
Trust Him, for the heart of Jesus
Is the only place of rest.
Trust Him, then, through cloud and sunshine,
All your cares upon him cast
Till the storm of life is over
And the trusting days are past.
