You can control yourself if you really want to. I'll tell you how I know you can control yourself. If you were in a full fledged emotional temper tantrum in your house and I knocked on your front door..... Come on! Let me tell you what, you would get control of yourself, and it would only take a few seconds.

Refuse to let your love grow cold. Stir up love in your life - towards your spouse and towards your family, friends, neighbours, co-workers. Reach out to others who are hurting and in need. Pray for people and bless them. Grow to the point that one of your first thoughts each morning in your heart is about how you can bless someone else that day.

What's real freedom? Real freedom is being able to not have my way and still be just as happy as if I did.

Do yourself a favor and forgive anyone that has anything against you. Do it as an act of faith and trust God to change and heal your emotions. Pray for your enemies and never say another unkind thing about them. It is the only way you can move past the pain and begin to heal.

God knows the mess we’re in when He calls us. His light shines greater through “cracked pots” than it does through those who have it all together.

I don't want to spend my whole life talking about the promised land without ever getting there. I want to live in it.

Wow! you might actually have to act like a Christian sometimes!
