God expects you not simply to face the future; He expects you to embrace and shape the future--to love it and rejoice in it and delight in your opportunities.

God never leaves us alone, never leaves us unaided in the challenges that we face.

We don't want God to remember our sins, so there is something fundamentally wrong in our relentlessly trying to remember those of others.

HAPPINESS comes first by what comes into your head a long time before material BLESSINGS come into your hand.

The race we are really in is the race against sin, and surely envy is one of the most universal of those.

To give ourselves totally to another person, as we do in marriage, is the most trusting step we take in any human relationship.

What we are shines more brightly than anything we say or do. If we are to fill the world with light, we must first face any tattered remnant of darkness that remains in our own souls.
