Many of us are tempted to find the key in doing, but the answer is actually found in being. It is vital that we are routinely humbled by the reminder that Christian life is grounded, not in what we can do, but what has been done for us and what we need done to us.

Father, we long for the clarity of Your truth to dawn upon our minds and for the immensity of Your love to grip our hearts.

Ladies, [motherhood] is a full-time job. Do not kid yourself that you can be a dental receptionist and a mother; that you can be a typist and a mom; that you can be a Vice President and a mom. One of the two things will win. Now look at your Bible and ask what you have to do.

If [the devil has] brought you down, make sure that with Christ’s enabling you stand back up.

I never met a hopeful Christian who didn't read their Bible.

May the spirit of Christ so fill us afresh that we might in turn be a refreshment and an encouragement to one another.

Death for the Christian is to fall asleep in the arms of Jesus and waking up and finding out that you're home.
