A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could, and it could go no further.So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the

South African designer Laurie Owen creates amazingly peaceful spaces.

This means tree stumps and boulders are used as tables, and branches are beautifully arranged to form custom headboards. These stunning,

I knew a couple who spent days working hard to pay the rent on their small apartment and buy food, while pursuing new opportunities to better themselves. Despite their circumstances, to dream and expand their vision, they dressed up and went to a posh hotel, where they simply sat in the elegant hotel lobby. They looked beyond where they were to where they wanted to be and let faith blossom in

For the Christian, what looks like a detour may actually be a new road to blessing.The journeys that we take in life, Though unexpected they may be, If we commit to follow Christ, His work through us the world will see. —SperI want you to know, brethren, that the things which happened to me have actually turned out for the furtherance of the gospel. —Philippians 1:12

It doesn't. That's what I think this style is all about.FoyerLiving

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though they were a very large mammal their throat was very small. The little girl stated Jonah was swallowed by a whale. The teacher reiterated a whale could not swallow a human; it was impossible. The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask

I enjoy watching this video. It is so entertaining and funny.Here's a little history of the two players for those not familiar with tennis.

He turned professional in 1977, and won his first top-level singles title in 1978 in Manila. Noah became France's most

I love Grilled Eggplant Panini. I used to order this all the time at a French Cafe back home, only it had rosemary in it and swiss cheese and olive oil, no mayo.
