BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goeth fourth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

BY FAITH

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Hebrews 11 Nobody could ever look at Jesus' disciples and say, "What a bunch of religious freaks!"
