The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase. God loves you. The greatest legacy we can leave our children is happy memories. God loves you and wants to have a personal relationship with you. The greatest thing you can do is to love your neighbor as yourself. If you are not a part of the solution, you are a part of the problem. We are all faced with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations. The only time my prayers are never answered is on the golf course. God's love is unconditional. The will of God will not take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us. When we come to the end of ourselves, we come to the beginning of God. The church is not a museum for saints, but a hospital for sinners. The Bible is the inspired Word of God. The only way to have a friend is to be one. The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened. God has given us two hands, one to receive with and the other to give with. We are not to be like the world, but we are to be in the world. A child who is allowed to be disrespectful to his parents will not have true respect for anyone. Heaven is full of answers to prayer for which no one ever bothered to ask. The greatest gift you can give to others is your time. We must be global Christians with a global vision because our God is a global God. The greatest legacy one can pass on to one's children and grandchildren is not money or other material things accumulated in life, but rather a legacy of character and faith. The world is not a playground; it is a battleground. You cannot be a true Christian without being a servant. My one purpose in life is to help people find a personal relationship with God. It is the Holy Spirit's job to convict, God's job to judge, and my job to love. God is not looking for perfect people, just people who are willing to be used. The world has yet to see what God can do through a man fully consecrated to Him. The best way to prepare for the future is to be present in the moment. |
