In God's garden of Grace, even broken trees bear fruit.

Great leaders genuinely care for and love the people they lead more than they love leading itself.
As long as you do things for God, you are a Hall of Famer in heaven's list.
Little people belittle people. Great people make people feel great.
Your most profound and intimate experiences of worship will likely be in your darkest days - when your heart is broken, when you feel abandoned, when your out of options, when the pain is great - and you turn to God alone.
