Life is not "either or," it's "both and"
When no one is selfless in a relationship, there is war. When one is selfless, there is peace. When both are selfless, there is joy.
We learn to trust man when he does what we expect him to do; we learn to trust God when He doesn't do what we expect Him to do.
Great leaders remove obstacles-including themselves.
If you can't change the status quo, make the status quo, change.
You'll never be great at anything you're not passionate about.
