Patrick Henry used the phrase in his last public speech, given in March 1799, in which he denounced The Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions. Clasping his hands and swaying unsteadily, Henry declaimed, “Let us trust God, and our better judgment to set us right hereafter. United we stand, divided we fall. Let us not split into factions which must destroy that union upon which our existence hangs.” At the end of his oration, Henry fell into the arms of bystanders and was carried almost lifeless into a nearby tavern.

Samantha Taylor, Samantha Taylor Fitness Have you ever wondered why you do the same thing over and over again when it causes you pain or frustration? I have asked this question for years because I used to struggle eating foods that I would regret, but then do it again. I had all the “knowledge” about food and nutrition, but I still couldn’t stop eating unhealthy food. Many years ago, I started to search in the Bible for answers to this and I found scriptures that talk about being transformed by the renewing of your mind. That word transformed means metamorphosis, … Continue reading How to Transform Your Mind to Change Behavior

In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he travelled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion, came to him, and bound up his … Continue reading An Act of Kindness: The Good Samaritan
