"Believed in the Lord Jesus, and you will be
saved -- you and your household." 
-- Acts 16:31 (NIV)

"Home"

A house can be built on a hill
A house can be built by the sea
A house can be built on a desert
A house can be built in a tree.

A house can be built of snow bricks
Of skins, of mud, of wood, of stone,
But wherever or however it's built,
If there is Love it is a Home.

-- Unknown

"This is my commandment, that you love one
another as I have loved you." - John 15:12 (NIV) 

"Love never fails. ..." -- 1Corinthians 13:8a (NIV)

------------
"For my dear ones"

"I ask not a life for my dear ones,
All radiant, as others have done;
But that life may have just enough shadow
To temper the glare of the sun.
I would pray God to guard them from evil--
Give them courage and strength to win
That their heads need never be bended
By regrets of "what might have been."

-- Charles Dickens

Christian homes don't just happen -- they're built. - Anon.
