Meekness is power under control.

Hypocrisy means deliberately pretending. None of us lives up to his ideals; none of us is all that he would like to be or all that he could be in Christ. But that is not hypocrisy. Falling short of our ideals is not hypocrisy. Pretending we have reached our ideals when we have not - that is hypocrisy.

The greatest judgment God can send on His people is letting them have their own way.

People can't see your root system, but God can. Praying and meditating on the Word of God will cause your roots to go down deep into His love.

Material wealth is either a window through which we see God or a mirror in which we see ourselves.

God has ordained that His people live by promises and not by explanations.

It is futile for us to try to serve God without the power of the Holy Spirit. Talent, training, and experience cannot take the place of the power of the Spirit.
