Three times a year all your males shall appear before the LORD your God at the place that he will choose: at the festival of unlea...vened bread, at the festival of weeks, and at the festival of booths. They shall not appear before the LORD empty-handed; all shall give as they are able, according to the blessing of the LORD your God that he has given you.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
For I handed on to you as of first importance what I in turn had received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the sc...riptures, and that he was buried, and that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers and sisters at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have died. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. For I am the least of the apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took a loaf of br...ead, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, -This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me. In the same way he took the cup also, after supper, saying, -This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

My eyes must be steady, my brain clear, my nerves calm, my aim true. I must be prepared to do my work, successfully if God wills. But if I perish, I perish.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

When I started out as a nurse I did so with the highest ideals.... But I found that steady work in my profession--like every woman...'s work in the world--depended upon the giving of myself.... Two-thirds of the physicians I met made a nurse's virtue the price of their influence in getting her steady work. Is it any wonder that I determined to become a member of this privileged sex, if possible?LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
