Real life begins by committing yourself completely to Jesus Christ.

If we condone torture, we yield the moral high ground to our enemies and encourage anyone who hates us to stoop to using that subhuman level against us. We reap whatever we sow.

When you have a major loss in your life, the first thing you need to do is tell God exactly how you feel.

Our time on earth and our energy, intelligence, opportunities, relationships, and resources are all gifts from God that he has entrusted to our care and management. We are stewards of whatever God gives us. This concept of stewardship begins with the recognition that God is the owner of everything and everyone on earth. ... We never actually own anything during our brief stay on earth. God just loans the earth to us while we're here. It was God's property before you arrived, and God will loan it to someone else after you die.

If God was small enough for you to completely understand him, he wouldn't be big enough for you to completely trust him.

Christians can be positive even in a negative situation because we know God has a purpose for allowing that problem.

Long before you were conceived by your parents, you were conceived in the mind of God.
