Until we accept and approve of ourselves, no amount of approval from others will keep us permanently secure.

Anger is the fruit of rotten roots.

When you forgive, you must cancel the debt. Do not spend your life paying and collecting debts.

Faith is a decision we make about where we are going to put our trust.

Love is not talk or theory; it's action. In fact the Bible says that we cannot be walking in love if we see a brother in need, have what it takes to meet his need, and will not do anything to help him.

I had received Christ as my savior when I was a child, but I didn't know anything. I didn't have any knowledge. I didn't go to church. And I had a lot of problems, and I needed somebody to kind of help me along. And I think sometimes even people who want to serve God, if they have got so many problems that they don't think right and they don't act right and they don't behave right, they almost need somebody to take them by the hand and help lead them through the early years. And that's really what discipleship is. It's helping people.

Sometimes love is best expressed through service. Words are great, but when you walk in love, your commitment must be more than words.
