A Christian ought to speak kindly even when given the opportunity to retaliate.

Well, in the first place, military service, they don't call it service for nothing. You are actually serving your country. And it is a worthy and valid vocation.

If you aren't serving, you're just existing, because life is meant for ministry.

Get honest with God, and your focus will shift from just seeing your problems - no matter how overwhelming they seem - to the grace of God.

The way you see your life shapes your life.

Worry is a waste of energy. It cant change the past. It cant control the future. It only makes today miserable

I'd rather live dangerously for Jesus than exist safely for people's approval.
