The main thing is working the harvest of Love
Remembering to keep the main thing the main thing. The main thing is Godliness. Not godliness as in any god but Godliness as in YAHWEH-likeness, for YAHWEH is the one true God.

Trust Is the Stamina of Love
The rarest and most precious element in the world is and has always been trust.
