When there is a fight between your heart and your head, experience has taught me that the best thing you can do is pick up your Bible and remind yourself of what God says.

As you give God your time, your gifts, your resources and talents, He will use them to have a critically important and eternal impact on this world.

When God has assigned you, He knows where and when to find you.

If we don't put our faith to work we will soon discover that we have a faith that doesn't work!

Your talent will open the door but only your character can keep you there.

Replace what you don't know about the future with what you do know about God!

I also came to understand that our authenticity (or lack thereof) is made evident by the fruit that our life is bearing.
