dna ideas parent
Don't see yourself as a product of your parents DNA, but rather as a brand new idea from heaven.
prayer wall dark
Prayer is the window that God has placed in the walls of our world. Leave it shut and the world is a cold, dark house. But throw back the curtains and see His light. Open the window and hear His voice. Open the window of prayer and invoke the presence of God in your world.
pain people trying
I try to help people see that God uses pain, that pain is one of the ways God shapes us into the kind of beings He wants us to be for eternity.
inspirational god faith
Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want. It is the belief that God will do what is right.
worry max praying
No one can pray and worry at the same time.
faith christian focus
Focus on giants - you stumble. Focus on God - Giants tumble.
thinking
I think we have such a crown jewel in the forgiveness of God, and it changes people's lives.
kindness grace want
Our Savior kneels down and gazes upon the darkest acts of our lives. But rather than recoil in horror, he reaches out in kindness and says, "I can clean that if you want." And from the basin of his grace, he scoops a palm full of mercy and washes away our sin.
stars needs facts
The maker of the stars would rather die for you than live without you. And that is a fact. So if you need to brag, brag about that.
full-of-yourself
God can't fill you when you are already full of yourself.
butterfly loss thinking
We see a hearse; we think sorrow. We see a grave; we think despair. We hear of a death; we think of a loss. Not so in heaven. When heaven sees a breathless body, it sees the vacated cocoon & the liberated butterfly.
inspirational voice giving
Grace is the voice that calls us to change and then gives us the power to pull it off.
inspirational forgiveness doors
Forgiveness is unlocking the door to set someone free and realising you were the prisoner!
goal long want
There is a rawness and a wonder to life. Pursue it. Hunt for it. Sell out to get it. Don't listen to the whines of those who have settled for a second-rate life and want you to do the same so they won't feel guilty. Your goal is not to live long; it's to live.
