If we choose the wrong road, we choose the wrong destination.

The intensity of our desire to share the gospel is a great indicator of the extent of our personal conversion.

If we knew that we would meet the Lord tomorrow - through our premature death or through His unexpected coming - what would we do today? What confessions would we make? What practices would we discontinue? What accounts would we settle? What forgivenesses would we extend? What testimonies would we bear? If we would do those things then, why not now?

We should refrain from anything that seems to be a final judgment of any person...the Lord alone has the capacity to judge...And, in all of this we must remember the command to forgive.

We have the agency to choose which characteristics will define us; those choices are not thrust upon us.

Having descended beneath it all, He is perfectly positioned to lift us.

The ultimate treasures on earth and in heaven are our children and our posterity.
