Faith is the conviction that God knows more than we do about this life and He will get us through it.

I'm protective of the reputation of Christ and the church.

The worst part of all is that, without forgiveness, bitterness is all that is left

Greed is not defined by what something costs; it is measured by what it costs you. If anything costs you your faith or your family, the price is too high. Such is the point Jesus makes in the parable of the portfolio.

We will find grace to help us when we need it

Don't equate the presence of God with a good mood or a pleasant temperament. God is near whether you are happy or not.

Here's what you need to keep in mind. You no longer have yesterday. You do not yet have tomorrow. You have only today. This is the day the Lord has made. Live in it.
