Becoming a Christian is the work of a moment; being a Christian is the work of a lifetime.

God is concerned about everything that concerns us - without exception.

I'm not a righteous man. People put me up on a pedestal that I don't belong in my personal life. And they think that I'm better than I am. I'm not the good man that people think I am. Newspapers and magazines and television have made me out to be a saint. I'm not. I'm not a Mother Teresa. And I feel that very much.

When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost.

Grief's darkness fades in the sunlight of thanksgiving.

There are people that say they will do better but they never do better. They have no power in them to do better until they come to Christ.

Think about the holes children make when they dig in the sand on the seashore. When the waves come in, the holes are swallowed up by the ocean. Similarly, when we know Christ, our physical death is overwhelmed by the love and grace of God. Death is swallowed up in the victory of Christ.
