People who inspire others are those who see invisible bridges at the end of dead-end streets

Times may be hard and people may be demanding, but never forget that life is special. Every single day is a special day. God is at work in you!

'We really shouldn't look like a church.' I've heard that so much I want to vomit. 'Why?' I ask. 'Do you want your bank to look like a bank? Do you want your doctor's office to look like a doctor's office, or would you prefer your doctor to dress like a clown?'

Part of the thrill of guiding children into adulthood is the release. But it's also a parent's greatest act of surrender. Still, you have to let them go. Start now.

People who are close to God cultivate a personal intimacy with Him like a good gardener cultivates beautiful flowers.

God also allows suffering so that we might learn what it means to depend on Him, not on our own strength and resources.

When we have God in clear focus, His powerful presence eclipses our fear.
