The counselee should be aware that you are not God. Better yet, she should be aware that you are aware that you are not God.

While you can't keep fear from visiting, you can slam the door in its face. With God's promise in your hand, that's exactly what you are able to do.

If He wasn't going to use that hard thing for your good, it wouldn't have happened. He had to sign off on every single thing that touches your life.

You'll face overwhelming odds; you'll be incredibly outnumbered. Fear would be your natural inclination. But keep in mind, God is with you.

The Christian way is a life of faith. In order to hold on to the promises of God, you've got to believe them and live by them.

You will never experience the fullness of joy you were created to know until Jesus Christ has first place in every area.

I've learned to be careful of becoming a critic. Criticism really sours your heart.
