When the Spirit is absent, our excuses always seem right, but in the presence of the Spirit our excuses fade away.

Detached forgiveness—there is a reduction in negative feelings toward the offender, but no reconciliation takes place. Limited forgiveness—there is a reduction in negative feelings toward the offender, and the relationship is partially restored, though there is a decrease in the emotional intensity of the relationship. Full forgiveness—there is a total cessation of negative feelings toward the offender, and the relationship is fully restored.

The more conscious of God's presence the more I feel like being myself, the less conscious of His presence, the more I feel I need to prove myself.

I want to inspire people to desire to see the praise that comes from the one and only true God. Above all else. That is what God has laid on my heart and the message that I bring to you.

God is predictably unpredictable.

You are probably at your sanest when you come to the place where you abandon all else but your desire for God.

Love is a choice. Total forgiveness is a choice. It is not a feeling-at least at first-but is rather an act of the will. It is the choice to tear up the record of wrongs we have been keeping.
