You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life will never make sense.

There is no growth without change, no change without fear or loss and no loss without pain.

In our final moments we all realize that relationships are what life is all about. Wisdom is learning that truth sooner rather than later.

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 our competitive world we're taught to never quit trying, never give up, and never give in - so we don't hear much about surrendering. If winning is everything, surrendering is unthinkable. Even Christians would rather talk about winning, succeeding, overcoming, and conquering than yielding, submitting, obeying, and surrendering. But surrendering to God is the heart of worship.

A father, finding time for what is most important is the true marker of a successful person.

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