I do not believe God is responsible for my sins, some people may. But I believe that my own weaknesses are father-filtered and just as much as God touched Jacob's hip and he walked with a limb the rest of his life, that I have certain emotional weaknesses that are there to keep me dependent on God.

In the fall literally everything is broken. Nothing on this planet works. Every body is broken, none of our bodies works perfectly. Every relationship is broken. The weather is broken. I don't have a problem with hurricanes. Nothing works on this planet. This is not heaven, this is Earth and that is why we are to pray thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven. Why? Because God's perfect will is done perfectly in heaven. So I am to pray that done here.

Resentment always hurts you more than the person you resent.

The most essential quality for leadership is not perfection but credibility. People must be able to trust you.

Gods plan isn't a map for your life that you see all at once, but a scroll unrolled a little at a time.

Our hope is not in the man we put in the White House but in the Man we put on the Cross.

It's easy to demonize from a distance.
