[Faith-talk] Quotes for Monday, October 31, 2016

[Paul Smith]

Hello and greetings to one and all on this last day of October.  Hope 
your day is going well as you read this message, by God's matchless 
grace and His providential care.

As usual here are today's two quotes for your consideration, pondering 
and reflection.

Almost anybody can learn to think or believe or know, but not a single 
human being can be taught to feel.  E.E. Cummings, American poet, 
1894-1962 (quote compiler's comment:  The idea of feeling or compassion 
with someone in distress is something that is, to one extent or 
another, ingrained in each of us, and that's why one can't learn to 
feel, all in my opinion).

The only thing to do with good advice is pass it on.  It is never any 
use to oneself.  Oscar Wilde

And there you have today's quotes.  Until later today when, Lord 
willing we continue looking in depth at the Gospel of Matthew in the 
Baffling Bible Questions Answered weekly column or until tomorrow 
morning when more quotes will be posted, I am your obedient servant of 
the One who lived an earthly existence, died to pay for your sins and 
mine, and now lives forever to bring us His salvation and peace, Oil of 
Gladness.
