I have 3 Salada tea tag lines taped into the cover of my bible. We should start drinking it again...but too acidic for us old folks.
Only one who can see the invisible can do the impossible.
Never be diverted from the truth by what you would like to believe.
The first great gift we can bestow on others is a good example.
And finally a quote from William Makepeace Thackaray:
It's not dying for a faith that's hard. It's living up to it.
My wife has these Salada tag lines in her bible:
Just because a path is well beaten, is no proof it's the right one.
Sometimes silence makes the best conversation.
Have a blessed day today!
