Don’t indulge your ego at the expense of your soul.
While life on earth offers many choices, eternity offers only two: heaven or hell. Your relationship to God on earth will determine your relationship to him in eternity.
Faithful servants never retire. You can retire from your career, but you will never retire from serving God.
People are interested by talent. God is impressed by character.

Receiving, reading, researching, remembering, and reflecting on the Word of God are all useless if we fail to put what we learn into practice.
You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life will never make sense.
Without the grace of Jesus: a hopeless end. With the grace of Jesus: an endless hope.
In God’s eyes, the greatest heroes of faith are not those who achieve prosperity, success, and power in this life, but those who treat life as a temporary assignment and serve faithfully, expecting their promised reward in eternity.

If you’re alive, there’s a purpose for your life.

People ask me, “Are you right wing or are you left wing?” and I always say, “I’m for the whole bird.” A one-winged bird didn’t ever get off the ground.
I serve a higher power, Jesus Christ. I make no apologies in saying that.
Remember how far you’ve come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be.
