We must pray constantly for His enabling grace to say no to temptation, of choosing to take all practical steps to avoid known areas of temptation and flee from those that surprise us.

Every day is important for us because it is a day ordained by God.

We're more concerned about our own "victory" over sin than we are about the fact that our sins grieve God's heart.

We insist that God must surely lead everyone as we believe He has led us. We refuse to allow God the freedom to deal with each of us as individuals. When we think like that, we are legalistic.

Faith in Christ and a reliance on ourselves, even to the smallest degree, are mutually exclusive.

True joy comes only from God and He shares this joy with those who walk in fellowship with Him.

Even our tears of repentance need to be washed in the blood of the Lamb.
