regret

Many of us look back on our youth and acknowledge a few regrets here and there. Toni Braxton, the award winning R&B singer, also has a few regrets from her…

Dear Peter,

I’ve been unable to sleep since I broke off our engagement last month. I’m writing to ask you to forgive me of that terrible mistake. Your absence in my life is heartbreaking. I was a fool; no one can take your place. I love you so much. Please take me back.

Does your back ever hurt? Do you suffer from headaches? How about anxiety or depression? Do those trouble you? If so, one clinical psychologist has a solution.

Fess up!

One Sunday when he was a young man, Robert Robinson and some buddies went to church…but only to make fun of the Christians gathered in worship. However, the preacher that day was the mighty George Whitefield, and Robinson ended up giving his life to Christ instead!

And that’s just one part of this hymn writer’s amazing spiritual journey.

It was a cold day in February of 2015 when Matt Buckland boarded the already-crowded subway en route to his London office. At one of the later stops, a young man who was evidently having a bad day got on the train.

But that young man’s day was about to get much, much worse.

When you notice injustice, racism, violence, or some other form of evil, what do you do? Do you take strong action against it? Do you denounce it? Do you at least pray against it?

At all costs, you should avoid doing what Fred Craddock, the famous preacher, once did.

In the violent world of African war where thousands of people shot bullets, South African photojournalist Kevin Carter shot film. The dangerous vocation of wartime photography put him in life-and-death situations on a daily basis…and eventually, it took its toll.

But Carter wasn’t killed in war. He took his own life…even after winning a Pulitzer Prize for one of his photos.
