- I was touched by the love of God 35 years ago, my eyes were opened, and I have never been the same since.God can’t reverse the years of rebellion, but He can reverse their effect.
- Nothing I have done before disqualifies me. God restarts His work in me every day.
- Behind every trial there is a purpose. Our hardships are part of our testimony. Let your pain have purpose. Don’t waste it.
- God is a God of the fresh chance.
- Doing things God’s way is the fastest way of getting where we want to go.
- Unless we know The Creator, we do not know why we are created.
- God chose to create time and step into it while still remaining outside of it.
- Financial security provides only an illusion of control over our circumstance and lives.
- God is against the obsessive accumulation of wealth. Materialism chains and enslaves us. Be ready to share.
- God prospers us not to raise our standard of living, but to raise our standard of giving.
- Independence is not strength; it is the essence of sin.
- If you are going through trials, rejoice. You are being pruned so that you can bear more fruit.
- Faith allows us to hold onto the hope that this suffering is not the end of our story.
- God is not moved by our need; He is moved by our faith.
- God uses our circumstances to get our attention.
- Remember this one thing: God is madly in love with you. Take courage, hold on, be strong.
- No matter what, God believes in you.
- God does not look at our successes, He looks at our obedience.
- God celebrates our obedience more than our successes.
- Punishment is penalty for the past; correction is training for the future. Know the difference.
- Who we are starts with ‘whose we are’.
- Our task is not to change the world. It is to change somebody’s world.
- Evil is necessary, because without it freewill is impossible, and without freewill there can be no growth, and no chance for us to become what God longs for us to be.
- Wisdom determines the difference between what we think we need and what we really need.
- We are all searching for belonging and significance; to love and to be loved.
- Innocence is not purity. Innocence is right for a child but criminal for a man or woman. Men and women have no business being innocent; they ought to be virtuous and pure for character to be attained. When we hold back impulse, we discipline it into character…it becomes intuition.
- No matter the current circumstances, God won’t allow us to perish in defeat.
- There will be victory; the tribulations are not in vain.
