I forgive. First, because I've been forgiven by God. Second, unforgiveness makes me miserable. And third, I'm going to need more forgiveness in the future. So we don't forgive for their benefit. We actually forgive for ours.

Jesus measured greatness in terms of service not status. God determines your greatness by how many people you serve, not how many people serve you.

There is a grand designer behind everything. God's plan for your life, all that happens to you, including your mistakes, your sins, and your hurts.

Time is your most precious gift, because you only have a set amount of it.

That's God's number one purpose, to make us like Christ.

To become a master communicator: shut your mouth & listen first.

Forgiveness must be immediate, whether or not a person asks for it. Trust must be rebuilt over time. Trust requires a track record. If someone hurts you repeatedly, you are commanded by God to forgive them instantly, but you are not expected to trust them immediately, and you are not expected to continue allowing them to hurt you.
