"Now you can't change your past. But you can determine your destiny by deciding for Christ. He died on the cross so that all the sins you've ever committed, all the things you've ever done wrong are forgiven. ... Come to Christ.

Those years of silence were a time of discipline, not of displeasure."
— Oswald Chambers
