The greatest surprise in life to me is the brevity of life.

Love is to the heart what the summer is to the farmer's year. It brings to harvest all the loveliest flowers of the soul.

When Scripture talks about the heart, it's not talking about that life-sustaining muscle. It's talking about our entire inner being. The heart is the seat of our emotions, the seat of decisive action, and the seat of belief (as well as doubt).

Death is robbed of much of its terror for the true believer.

Kindness is an essential part of Gods work and ours here on earth.

Churchgoers are like coals in a fire. When they cling together, they keep the flame aglow; when they separate, they die out.

The farther we get from God, the more the world spirals out of control. My heart aches for America and its deceived people. The wonderful news is that our Lord is a God of mercy, and He responds to repentance. In Jonah's day, Nineveh was the lone world superpower-wealthy, unconcerned, and self-centered. When the Prophet Jonah finally traveled to Nineveh and proclaimed God's warning, people heard and repented. I believe the same thing can happen once again, this time in our nation. It's something I long for.
