Real security can only be found in that which can never be taken from you - your relationship with God.

When Jesus started His ministry, the very first thing He did was form a small group.

But dogs, which have no ability to sin nor moral conscience, do not have an ability to reject Jesus.

If God only used perfect people, nothing would get done. God will use anybody if you're available.

The heart of the issue is an issue of the heart. And that's why I'm a pastor, not a politician. Because I think only - only God can change hearts. And only God can take the evil out. I don't think you can legislate the evil out of people.

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?

When God is at the center of your life, you Worship, when He's not, you Worry.
