| “The Son of God
perfectly knows and understands, for He felt and bore our burdens before
we ever did. And because He paid the ultimate price and bore that
burden, He has perfect empathy and can extend to us His arm of mercy in
so many phases of our life. He can reach out, touch, succor—literally
run to us—and strengthen us to be more than we could ever be and help us
to do that which we could never do through relying upon only our own
power.”

| “I've knitted myself
a hat, it's plum red with an appealing lace pattern, I figured that a
few air holes would be nice now that it's spring. I put it on and feel
like a cranberry in the snow, and I wonder if they can see me from the
moon. Me and the Great Wall.”
