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

You have a God who hears you, the power of love behind you, the Holy Spirit within you, and all of heaven ahead of you. If you have the Shepherd, you have grace for every sin, direction for every turn, a candle for every corner and an anchor for every storm. You have everything you need.

When you keep the porch light on for the prodigal child, you do what God does every single moment.

God's love has a width, length, height, and depth, but we will never reach the end of it. Our capacity to experience God's love will be exhausted long before God's capacity to give it is strained. The picture of having Christ dwell inside us by faith presents us with compelling and comforting possibilities. What Christ does in us and through us will always be 'exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think.'

When you're full of yourself, God can't fill you. But when you empty yourself, God has a useful vessel.

God has the final word on your life and His word is grace.

I think we have such a crown jewel in the forgiveness of God, and it changes people's lives.
