God's delight is received upon surrender, not awarded upon conquest.

God has proven himself as a faithful father. Now it falls to us to be trusting children.

See your enemies, not as God's failures, but as God's projects.

How does God deal with your bitter heart? He reminds you that what you have is more important than what you don't have. You still have your relationship with God. No one can take that.

Grace is the voice that calls us to change and then gives us the power to pull it off.

No one can pray and worry at the same time. When we worry, we aren't praying. When we pray, we aren't worrying.

There is a canyon of difference between doing your best to glorify God and doing whatever it takes to glorify yourself. The quest for excellence is a mark of maturity. The quest for power is childish.
