tough row to hoe

Living in the world without God is a hard slog.

“The Lord said to the man, ‘You listened to your wife and ate the fruit I told you not to eat. And so, the ground will be under a curse because of what you did. As long as you live, you will have to struggle to grow enough food. Your food will be plants, but the ground will produce thorns and thistles. You will sweat all your life to earn a living; you were made out of soil, and you will once again turn into soil.’” — Genesis 3:17-19, CEV

every day is Father’s Day

“Don’t set people up as experts over your life, letting them tell you what to do. Save that authority for God; let him tell you what to do. No one else should carry the title of ‘Father;’ you have only one Father, and he’s in heaven.” — Matthew 23:9, The Message Bible
