God doesn’t want us to live timid, shy, weak, wimpy, fearful, boring lives. He wants us to be bold, con dent and courageous, unafraid to try new things. And it never ceases to amaze me what God will do through a person who simply steps out in faith.

It isn't necessary to trust God when we have full understanding and knowledge of what He is doing on our behalf... Trust is needed in those times when, for whatever reason, we are not hearing from God as clearly as we would like.

If you will do what you CAN do, God will do what you CANNOT do.

Don't wait for everything to be perfect before you decide to enjoy your life.

Faith is having a positive attitude about what you can do and not worrying at all about what you can't do.

We can get excited by thinking about what all we have or can have, OR we can get discouraged by thinking about what all we don't have.

Contentment with life is not a feeling, but it is a decision we must make. Contentment does not mean that we never want to see change or improvement, but it does mean we can be happy where we are and will do the best we can with what we have. It also means we will maintain an attitude that allows us to enjoy the gift of life.
