Chesterton said that 'Culture is the art of growing things.' There is no growth if we do not cultivate and nurture our relationships with the people around us. There can be no family, no neighborhood and no community. There can be no culture.

Satirical Series Reveals the Secret Lies Behind Picturesque Instagram Posts

Some Instagram photos are so perfect you can’t help wondering how scenes like that actually exist. Beautifully crafted, the compositions might make you wish your life was that picturesque. Thailand-based photographer Chompoo Baritone sheds some light on these types of impeccable images with her clever series called #slowlife. In it, these small Instagram frames are just a fraction of the overall surroundings—a less-than-flawless scene.

Not one word of all the good promises that the LORD had made to the house of Israel had failed; all came to pass.

Excellent design and a favourite verse.

I don't get that money back if I go, and I don't get it back if I don't go. It's irrelevant to my decision.... When you make decisions, don't think about what you've put in, think about what you'll get out.

Before I die, I want to be someone’s favorite hiding place, the place they can put everything they know they need to survive, every secret, every solitude, every nervous prayer, and be absolutely certain I will keep it safe. I will keep it safe.

Can I same the same things about God in my life? Can he be my ultimate hiding place?

Before I die, I want God to be my favourite hiding place, the place I can find, have, put and keep everything and everyone I need to survive, every secret, every solitude, every nervous prayer, and be absolutely certain he will keep it safe. He will keep it safe.

For marriage, as simply as it can be defined, is the contemplation of the love of God in and through the form of another human being.
