Decide that you're going to love the people around you, even those you don't particularly like - or perhaps especially those you don't like.

The one principle that surrounds everything else is that of stewardship; that we are the managers of everything that God has given us

...when I prayed to receive Jesus Christ as my Savior, I had made that promise...: 'If You'll make Your will for my clear, I'll do it no matter what!'

The measure of true giving is to share with someone who has no platform from which to speak and may never benefit us in any way. After all, isn't that what true love is all about?

...most entrepreneurial types are free-wheelers who like to do a variety of things and do not enjoy routine tasks. But a smart entrepreneur will eventually learn that while ideas start businesses, organization makes them successful.

It is amazing to me that we allow so many people with so little proven character to set our national policy on issues that will ultimately be paid for by the rest of us.

My greatest fear in life is standing before the Lord and hearing Him say, ‘I had so much more for you, but you held on too tightly.’
