SUPPORT TIGER WOODS

By Tiger Woods: Comments On Current Events

I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.

Woods Apologizes and Gets Support

...let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone...John 8:7

I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me. Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord when was it that we did these things for you?' And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.Matthew 25: 35-45

"To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to reap that which is planted.A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to to mourn, and a time to dance.A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing.A time to get and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence and a time to speak;A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace."Ecclesiastes 3: 1

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
