An Opportunity Was Being Given To Me

The Time Had Just Come When I Had Been Pushed As Far As I Could Stand To Be Pushed.

If You Want To Be Respected For Your Actions, Then Your Behavior Must Be Above Reproach. If Our Lives Demonstrate That We Are Peaceful, Humble, And Trusted, This Is Recognized By Others.

If I Stayed Angry At Other People, I Would Miss Finding Friends Among Those I Was Angry With.

Every Day Before Supper And Before We Went To Services On Sundays. My Grandmother Would Read The Bible To Me, And My Grandfather Would Pray. We Even Had Devotions Before Going To Pick Cotton In The Fields. Prayer And The Bible, Became A Part Of My Everyday Thoughts And Beliefs. I Learned To Put My Trust In God And To Seek Him As My Strength.

Memories Of Our Lives, Of Our Works And Our Deeds Will Continue In Others.
