Forgiveness doesn't diminish justice; it just entrusts it to God. He guarantees the right retribution.

The maker of the stars would rather die for you than live without you. And that is a fact. So if you need to brag, brag about that.

You will never forgive anyone more than God has already forgiven you.

If you are 8 hours a day in a job you hate, you're not going to be a very good spouse; it can contribute to chemical dependency, financial mismanagement.

About four days a week, I do pretty good at having a morning prayer time. But even at that, it's a rambling sort of thing. What I have learned to do better is to try to keep my mind turned toward God and ear inclined toward God throughout the day, and I think I'm doing better at that ,but I've got a long way to go.

The idea of a spiritual heart transplant is a vivid image to me; once you have the heart of somebody else inside you, then that heart is there. Jesus' heart is inside me, and my heart is gone. So if God were to place a stethoscope against my chest, he would hear the heart of Jesus Christ beating.

God crowns us. Most people crown their Christmas trees with either an angel or a star. God uses both.
