Outlook determines outcome.
You are a Christian because somebody cared. Now it’s your turn.
No matter how much you may change or how life may change, God never changes, and His promises never fail.
The world changes – circumstances change, we change – but God’s Word never changes.
People can’t see your root system, but God can. Praying and meditating on the Word of God will cause your roots to go down deep into His love.
Real contentment must come from within. You and I cannot change or control the world around us, but we can change and control the world within us.
It is easy to make excuses when we ought to be making opportunities.
Faithfulness in the small things will lead to blessing in the big things.
It is a remarkable thing that some of the most optimistic and enthusiastic people you will meet are those who have been through intense suffering.
The past can be a rudder that guides you or an anchor tha hinders you. Leave your mistakes with God and look to the future by faith.
God is more interested in the workman than in the work.
Sometimes fear comes, not before the battle or even in the midst of the battle, but after we have won the victory.
Discipleship is a daily discipline; we follow Jesus a step at a time, a day at a time.
Don’t waste your sufferings.
A realist is an idealist who has gone through the fire and been purified. A skeptic is an idealist who has gone through the fire and been burned.
Christ is more concerned about what we do with Him than for Him.
The ability to calm your soul and wait before God is one of the most difficult things in the Christian life. Our old nature is restless... the world around us is frantically in a hurry. But a restless heart usually leads to a reckless life.
The erosion of character usually begins with neglect: we stop reading the Word, or worshiping with God’s people, or taking time to meditate and pray.
Reputation is what people think we are; character is what God and the holy angels know we are.
God does not reveal His will to those who are curious. He reveals His will to those who are obedient. God guides those who are concerned about His glory.
