You can do something no one else can do in a fashion no one else can do it.

God sends his angels to protect us and his Word as a star to guide us. Then he surrounds us with his grace. We become his depot, the distribution point of God's gifts.

I am very confident in preaching.

I choose gentleness... Nothing is won by force. I choose to be gentle. If I raise my voice may it be only in praise. If I clench my fist, may it be only in prayer. If I make a demand, may it be only of myself.

God has work for you to do.

If God were only mighty, we would Salute Him. But since he is Merciful and Mighty, we can approach Him.

We need hope. There's nothing worse than to live a life of despair. For a person to have no hope just sucks the blue out of every sky.
