Talk to people, not above them.

When the pastor and his or her church have a vision, they will put their energy, time, money, and personnel into achieving it.

When you are full of pride on the inside, it makes you stiff, stubborn, and creates strife with others.

Few things build a person up like affirmation. According to Webster’s New World Dictionary, Third College Edition (Simon and Schuster, 1991), the word affirm comes from ad firmare, which means “to make firm.” So when you affirm people, you make firm within them the things you see about them. Do that often enough, and the belief that solidifies within them will become stronger than the doubts they have about themselves.

we need to make a few critical decisions in major areas of life and then manage those decisions day to day.
