If you want your life to have impact, focus it! Stop dabbling. Stop trying to do it all. Do less. Prune away even good activities and do only that which matters most. Never confuse activity with productivity. You can be busy without a purpose, but what's the point?

If others don't use their gifts, you get cheated, and if you don;t use your gifts, they get cheated.

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

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

God loves to bring good out of bad. He loves to turn crucifixions into resurrections. Every obstacle is an opportunity. Every problem has potential. Every crisis is an opportunity for ministry. Every hurt God wants to use for His glory.

The first purpose of your life is to be loved by God! Yes, it is important to serve him, obey, and trust him, but your first purpose is to love him.

So I would say God hates war, but God loves every soldier.
