I had to be healed of my desire to be healed.

Every time we go to sleep, it's a rehearsal of the day when our eyes will ultimately close and we wake up on the side of eternity.

Nothing will convince and convict those around us like the peaceful and positive way you and I respond to our twentieth century hurts and distress. The unbelieving world-your neighbors, the guy at the gas station, the postman, the lady at the cleaners, your boss at work-is observing the way we undergo our trials.

I'd rather be in this wheelchair knowing God than on my feet without him.

Take those road hazards- the potholes, ruts, detours, and all the rest- as evidence that you were on the right route. It's when you find yourself on that big, broad, easy road that you ought to worry.

Perspective is everything when you are experiencing the challenges of life.

God always seems bigger to those who need him most. And suffering is the tool he uses to help us need him more.
