God grades on the Cross not on the curve.
When you have His joy in your heart, it doesn't necessarily mean your pain or hurt will be taken away. It means you'll be able to bear it.
Men throw broken things away, but God never uses anything until he first breaks it.
The Church is not a showboat; it's a battleship.
God is never in a hurry, but God is never late
A faith that hasn't been tested can't be trusted.
