The first step to becoming what God made you to be is to stop worrying about what others want you to be.

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

Since God intends to make you like Jesus, he will take you through the same experiences Jesus went through. That includes loneliness, temptation, stress, criticism, rejection, and many other problems.

You may have done some really nifty things in life, but if you think they're going to get you into Heaven, forget it. The only way any of us are going to get in is by receiving God's gift of grace, which is available to every person.

As long as you do things for God, you are a Hall of Famer in heaven's list.

We're a nation of laws, but the good thing about America, is that laws reside in the people and people can change the laws.
