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

It is never too late to start growing.

The closer you live to God, the smaller everything else appears.

Obviously there have been historically many different theories of the atonement and I think each of them has a part. But I think fundamentally it is the substitutionary understanding that God - Jesus took our payment and you can't understand.

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.

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

God is looking for people to use, and if you can get usable, he will wear you out. The most dangerous prayer you can pray is this: 'Use me.'
