When God wants to make a mushroom, he does it overnight, but when He wants to make a giant oak, He takes a hundred years. Great souls are grown through struggles and storms and seasons of suffering. Be patient with the process.

If you're alive, there's a purpose for your life.

The Bible teaches that we are to love people and use money, but we often get that reversed and you start loving money and using people to get more money. Money is simply a tool to be used for good.

Not everything in this life has a happy ending, but this life is not the end of the story.

If what I do pleases God, it is always the right thing to do, and I can stop worrying about everyone else's reactions. This dramatically simplifies life.

Prayer is the greatest use of my words.

We are not saved by good works; we are saved for good works. The Christian lifestyle is to be a lifestyle of goodness.
