I love the verse in Job, where it says a man deserves the devotion of his friends even when he forsakes the Almighty. Now what that verse means to me is, even if I were to say, right now I don't believe in God. I still need you to be my friend, and say, I can believe God for you right now. I'm going to hold you up while you are ranting and railing, and God can handle my ranting and railing because He certainly handled David's and Job's and so many others.

There are many different kinds of doubt. When we doubt the future, we call it worry. When doubt other people we call is suspicion. When we doubt ourselves we call it inferiority. When we doubt God we call it unbelief. When we doubt what we hear on television we call it intelligence! When we doubt everything we call it cynicism or skepticism.

Patience puts up with those you'd like to put down

Only changed people can change the world. Start with yourself.

Everybody wants confidence but you don't find it in self help books. You find confidence in the Holy Spirit.

Pain is the fuel of passion - it energizes us with an intensity to change that we don't normally possess.

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