The Land of Promise is for those who simply remain to the end.

I don't get asked a lot of questions about who is the best political candidate or what my position is on what the Senate is about to do.

Grace is not blind. It sees the hurt full well. But chooses to see God's forgiveness even more.

I accepted the forgiveness of God. I got off track as an adult and because I believe in God's grace, I believe that gave me strength then to get that little part of my life realigned, to not play games about it, to confess it, to ask for forgiveness from God and ask others to forgive me as well and then move on.

You long for one true friend? You have one. And because you do, you have a choice. You can... ponder the malice of your monster or the kindness of your Christ.

The most powerful life is the most simple life. The most powerful life is the life that knows where it's going, that knows where the source of strength is; it is the life that stays free of clutter and happenstance and hurriedness.

Gratitude develops faith. The surest path out of a slump is marked by the road sign "thank you, God."
