If we want to be better than normal we must move from good intentions to what I call God intentions.

As it goes with leaders, so it goes with the whole organization.

God often guides by what He doesn't provide.

Don’t worry when you meet opposition for obeying God. Worry when you don’t have opposition, because you’re probably not obeying God.

Personally, I hate flossing. So this is the first discipline I quit when I am stressed. But if I stop this one important habit, then I might be tempted to cheat on my eating plan, stay up too late, or skip my Bible reading. If I stay faithful in doing something that I don't enjoy, I tend to believe that I'm disciplined. Therefore, I eat better, go to bed on time, and stay in God's Word.

If you want what NORMAL people have, do what normal people DO. If you want what FEW people have, do what few people DO.

As we're growing closer to God, I ask people to decide when God wants them to stay planted exactly where they are.
