Comfort

“Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.” ― Edith Sitwell

Comfort is the best feeling you could have. It's the time where you can relax and not have to worry about anything. Comfort can be great, but too much of anything isn't good too. Too much comfort can bring laziness. Suddenly you just feel too lazy to even move a step. Too comfortable, not good. Relax once in a while. Then get back to work when you're ready!

Being a Christian is to change the way you think, right now our minds are in a corrupted state.

You start to know things that you can't find anywhere else. This explains that the information is so high, it wouldn't be from a human. If you are truly into Christianity, you will start having a wanting of to know more and more about what Christianity is all about. Then, you will finally see all the wonderful things God did for us. That is what is Christianity is.

Familiar with the saying 'Time flies quickly' or 'Time passes by so fast'. Is time really changing speed. Or are we just feeling time differently. Why is that? Now isn't the time to answer it.

Most importantly, spend time with family and kids to make memories in the future.
