We are the Bibles the world is reading; We are the creeds the world is needing; We are the sermons the world is heeding.
Learn to commit every situation to God, and trust Him for the outcome. God's love for you never changes, no matter what problems you face or how unsettled life becomes.
The number one problem in our world is alienation, rich versus poor, black versus white, labor versus management, conservative versus liberal, East versus West . . . But Christ came to bring about reconciliation and peace.
I am convinced the greatest act of love we can ever perform for people is to tell them about God's love for them in Christ.
My home is in Heaven. I'm just traveling through this world.
Don't let failure or disappointment cut you off from God or make you think that the future is hopeless. When God closes one door, He often opens another door - if we seek it.
Life is just a schoolroom with a glorious opportunity to prepare us for eternity.
Our world today so desperately hungers for hope, yet uncounted people have almost given up. There is despair and hopelessness on every hand. Let us be faithful in proclaiming the hope that is in Jesus.
To get nations back on their feet, we must first get down on our knees.
The word of God hidden in the heart is a stubborn voice to suppress.
Our days are numbered. One of the primary goals in our lives should be to prepare for our last day. The legacy we leave is not just in our possessions, but in the quality of our lives. What preparations should we be making now? The greatest waste in all of our earth, which cannot be recycled or reclaimed, is our waste of the time that God has given us each day.
Jesus used the carefree attitude of the birds to underscore the fact that worrying is unnatural. I am learning in my own life, day by day, to keep my mind centered on Christ.
There are three of you. There is the person you think you are. There is the person others think you are. There is the person God knows you are and can be through Christ.
We can be certain that God will give us the strength and resources we need to live through any situation in life that he ordains. The will of God will never take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us.
