Life's trials are not easy. But in God's will, each has a purpose. Often He uses them to enlarge you.

The past can be a rudder that guides you or an anchor tha hinders you. Leave your mistakes with God and look to the future by faith.

God doesn't bless us just to make us happy; He blesses us to make us a blessing.

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.

When it seems as if God is far away, remind yourself that He is near. Nearness is not a matter of geography. God is everywhere. Nearness is likeness. The more we become like the Lord, the nearer He is to us.

Heaven is more than a destination; it is a motivation. Knowing that we shall dwell in the heavenly city ought to make a difference in our lives here and now.

Opportunities energize the faithful and paralyze the fearful.
