“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.”

You don't realize Jesus is all you need until Jesus is all you have.

Our society strives to avoid any possibility of offending anyone - except God.

Do right and God will do what‘s left.

Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand.

God is stirring your heart to seek Him because He intends to be found.

Those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.

There is nothing in this universe you need more desperately than Christ.

Winning the war of words inside your soul means learning to defy your inner critic.

Just going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a car.

Believe you can and you're halfway there.

I've read the last page of the Bible. It's all going to turn out all right.

God never made a promise that was too good to be true.

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, it empties today of its strength.

God has a purpose behind every problem.

He said, Love...as I have loved you.
We cannot love too much.

The world is filled with God's glory. You can't turn without bumping into it.

At times all of us experience fear. But don't allow fear to keep you from being used by God. He has kept you thus far; trust Him for the rest of the way.

If God were small enough to be understood, He would not be big enough to be worshiped.

Here lies the tremendous mystery - that God should be all-powerful, yet refuse to coerce. He summons us to cooperation. We are honored in being given the opportunity to participate in his good deeds. Remember how He asked for help in performing his miracles: Fill the waterpots, stretch out your hand, distribute the loaves.

Not until we have become humble and teachable, standing in awe of God's holiness and sovereignty...acknowledging our own littleness, distrusting our own thoughts, and willing to have our minds turned upside down, can divine wisdom become ours.

The longer you delay, the more your sin gets strength and rooting. If you cannot bend a twig, how will you be able to bend it when it is a tree?

Whence comes this idea that if what we are doing is fun, it can't be God's will? The God who made giraffes, a baby's fingernails, a puppy's tail, a crooknecked squash, the bobwhite's call, and a young girl's giggle, has a sense of humor. Make no mistake about that.

Twas an unhappy Division that has been made between Faith and Works; though in my Intellect I may divide them, just as in the Candle I know there is both Light and Heat. But yet, put out the Candle, and they are both gone.

Every man naturally desires knowledge; but what good is knowledge without fear of God? Indeed a humble rustic who serves God is better than a proud intellectual who neglects his soul to study the course of the stars.

God did not write a book and send it by messenger to be read at a distance by unaided minds. He spoke a Book and lives in His spoken words, constantly speaking His words and causing the power of them to persist across the years.

Pardon comes not to the soul alone; or rather, Christ comes not to the soul with pardon only! It is that which He opens the door and enters by, but He comes with a Spirit of life and power.

To have God in our life, doesn't mean saling on a boat with no storms, it means having a boat that no storm can sink!

Sometimes God has to put us flat on our back before we are looking up to Him.

I do not know anyone who goes through life without some wounding of the heart. Sometimes we take a little shower at Calvary rather than let God deeply cut and wash away the hurts with His atoning blood.

It is comforting to know that the God who guides us sees tomorrow more clearly than we see yesterday.
