I have to have a daily, vibrant relationship with Jesus in order to survive that process toward healing.

If we wait for the needy to walk through our church doors, we may wait a long time. God doesn't wait for people to come to Him. He goes to them.

A person full of the Holy Spirit cannot be full of self. Pride never accompanies power in the fully yielded life.

God is the only one who truly gets it because He knows the intimate ways of our minds and hearts.

No sin, no matter how momentarily pleasurable, comforting, or habitual, is worth missing what God has for us.

We must be careful to avoid spiritual elitism. Everything we are and anything we possess as believers in Christ is a gift of grace. Pure hearts before God must be cleansed from any hint of spiritual pride.

Setbacks, on the other hand, just make us feel weak and stupid: I should have conquered this by now. I happened on a question not long ago that oerfectly expresses this mentality: How many times must I prove myself an idiot?
