If God has called you, do not spend time looking over your shoulder to see who is following you.

No matter how deep our darkness, he is deeper still.

What a sad mistake we sometimes make when we think that God only cares about Christians.

Even as the angry vengeful thoughts boiled through me, I saw the sin of them. Jesus Christ had died for this man; was I going to ask for more? Lord Jesus, I prayed, forgive me and help me to forgive him....Jesus, I cannot forgive him. Give me your forgiveness....And so I discovered that it is not on our forgiveness any more than on our goodness that the world's healing hinges, but on His. When He tells us to love our enemies, He gives along with the command, the love itself.

We are up against the unseen power that controls this dark world and the spiritual agents are from the very headquarters of evil. Therefore, we must wear the "whole armour of God," that we may be able to resist evil in its day of power, and that even when we have fought to a standstill, we may still stand our ground.

Don't hold onto anything so tightly that Jesus can't take it from you.

You saw we could lose our lives for this child. I would consider that the greatest honor that could come to my family.
