Remember, it is not your weakness that will get in the way of God's working through you, but your delusions of strength. His strength is made perfect in our weakness! Point to His strength by being willing to admit your weakness.

Do you require yourself to remember? In order to live as you can and should, you first must remember who you are and what you’ve been given.

We must not offer people a system of redemption, a set of insights and principles. We offer people a Redeemer.

We must begin by admitting that people and situations do not cause us to speak as we do. Our hearts control our words. People and situations simply provide the occasion for the heart to express itself.

Grace will expose the deepest issues of your heart, then point you to the Cross which covers everything that's been exposed.

We forget that God's primary goal is not changing our situations or relationships so that we can be happy, but changing us through our situations and relationships so that we will be holy.

The Bible says that our core problem, the fundamental reason we do what we do, is sin.
