God loves us too much to pretend our sin isn't there. Sin is a cancer and Christ the surgeon. True prayer signs the consent form.

As I get older I've come to realize that the best way to "get even" with someone is to forgive - and then forget.

The commandments are a gift, not a curse. Sin is less about breaking the rules and more about breaking the Father's heart.

Consider God's love for you. Now double it. Now multiply that by 900 trillion. You're still not even close.

Courage doesn't mean we're not afraid. Courage means we refuse to be mastered by fear.

Giving God permission to make you a saint will ruin your life.

Gray and overcast from my earthly perspective, but it's sunny above these storm clouds. Grace lets us see life from God's point of view.
