The end of the world begins the moment you die.

All around you are people whose lives are filled with trouble and sorrow, and they need your compassion and encouragement.

I also would have steered clear of politics. I’m grateful for the opportunities God gave me to minister to people in high places; people in power have spiritual and personal needs like everyone else, and often they have no one to talk to. But looking back I know I sometimes cros­sed the line, and I wouldn’t do that now.

Think of working forever at something you love to do, for one you love with all your heart, and never getting tired! We will never know weariness in heaven.

May you also remember this Thanksgiving not only the obvious gifts that God has given you, but His spiritual blessings, as well. The greatest gift of all is Jesus Christ, and the salvation God offers us in Him.

I don't need a successor, only willing hands to accept the torch for a new generation.

Integrity is the glue that holds our way of life together.
