Friday Findings

Anyway, no drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power. – P. J. O'Rourke

We are in danger of destroying ourselves by our greed and stupidity. We cannot remain looking inwards at ourselves on a small and increasingly polluted and overcrowded planet. – Stephen Hawking

The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own. – Benjamin Disraeli

"Stop And Listen" – Song by Bethany Dillon

I wake up
Start the rush and pour some coffee
Things to do pile up
Oh so quickly
Too many days I feel like
I run on empty
Does anyone else out there feel like me?

But I’d be a fool to forfeit....
The chance to take a moment....

For You to rise like the dawn....
Over my cold, tired heart....
What I thought I had lost....
Finds me when I stop....
Stop and listen....

It’s the same slowing down lesson we all learn
But I don’t pay much attention
Till I crash and burn

So all together....
Let’s stop and sit at His feet....

My sisters and brothers....
