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.

Better to admit where you're not and ask God's help to get you where you need to be.

Your wealth of experience makes you rich. Spend it on hurt people. They need it so badly.

Let your light shine today, and let your personality blossom, too. You don't have to be a people-pleaser, just a people-lover.

We long to find someone who has been where we've been, who shares our fragile places, who sees our sunsets with the same shades of blue. Soul mates. They somehow validate the depth of our experiences.

Don't assume that God will always work in your life the way He always has. A sunset is proof that God colors outside the lines. He has no status quo. Even the laws of nature are His to interrupt. As many times as you've prayed before, today may be the day when God sends the answer so swiftly-so divinely-that you're windburned.

I assure you that some of the most awesome things God has ever done for me have come out of the most awful things I’d done to myself.
