Life is too short to learn everything by personal experience.

In Psalm 72, Solomon prays for power and fame but he says the purpose of influence is to speak up for others and one is the immigrant. He doesn't delineate between legal and illegal.

Never use prayer as an excuse to procrastinate doing what you already know is the right thing to do.

Every time you defeat a temptation, you become more like Jesus!

The instructor is always silent when the test is given... ...When God is silent in your life... You are being tested.

Hiding your hurt only intensifies it. Problems grow in the dark and only become bigger and bigger, but when exposed to the light of truth, they shrink. You are only as sick as your secrets. So take off your mask, stop pretending you're perfect and walk into freedom.

Life is about letting God use you for his purposes, not using him for your own purpose.
