Know that once we have received Jesus, we can't continue to live our old sinful lifestyle. Now that we have His Holy Spirit living in us, guiding us, and transforming us, we have no excuse.

Because God is a God of mercy and His mercy endures forever, you can trust that he will have mercy on you (See: 1 Chronicles 17:13). Therefore you can show mercy to your spouse by forgiving whenever he (she) does or says something that hurts or disturbs you.

It’s in those private times that we are refreshed, strengthened, and rejuvenated. It’s then we can see our lives from God’s perspective and discover what is really important. That’s where we understand who it is we belong to and believe in.

People's love for us may change, depending on what we do or don't do to please them. But God's does not-it's everlasting.

Don't think too small about what God could do in your life-be prepared for God to do a big thing.

Praying is not telling God what to do. It's trusting that God knows what to do.

Integrity is not what you APPEAR to be when all eyes are on you. It is who you ARE when no one is looking.
