Only the Holy Spirit has the power to make the changes God wants to make in our lives.... We allow Christ to live through us... through the choices we make. We choose to do the right thing in situations and then trust God's Spirit to give us his power, love, faith, and wisdom to do it. Since God's Spirit lives inside of us, these things are always available for asking.

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

Willpower can produce short-term change, but it creates constant internal stress because you haven't dealt with the root cause.

The problem with most American churches is that they teach too much and don't do enough.

Jesus is knocking at your door. Take hold of the better life by letting him into your life. Make him the boss of your life. It'll change everything.

Time is your most precious gift, because you only have a set amount of it.

And you know, when you've experienced grace and you feel like you've been forgiven, you're a lot more forgiving of other people. You're a lot more gracious to others.
