There are two kinds of pain: the pain of change and the pain of never changing and remaining the same.

If we know God is for us, then it shouldn't matter how we feel, or what other people think of us.

I imagine that it saddens the heart of God when we murmur and complain, instead of being thankful after He's been so good to us.

Small beginnings are the launching pad to great endings.

Fear will try to keep you from taking that first step. Don't give in to fear, do it afraid.

Today Lord I am going to do my best with Your help and for Your glory. I realize that there are many different people in the world with a variety of opinions and expectations. I will concentrate on being a God-pleaser and not a self-pleaser or man-pleaser. The rest I leave in Your hands lord. Grant me favor with You and with men and continue transforming me into the image of Your dear Son. Thank You Lord.

When I read the Bible, I see that we should have victory in our life and be overcomers, and I can't even control my temper. I'm impatient. I'm hard to get along with. I'm selfish and self-centered, and I don't seem to have any control over it.
