My ultimate goal... is for you to live the life you're intended to live.
Life is all about stewardship. It all belongs to God - he just loans it to us for a short period of time. The first command God gave to man was to take care of the Earth, which includes managing and protecting the environment.
God gave us the gift of life in heaven. Many people are given this gift, but they never open it. They never do anything with it.
When life doesn't make sense, we can still have peace.
God is more interested in your character than your comfort. God is more interested in making your life holy than He is in making your life happy.
Jesus is knocking at your door. Take hold of the better life by letting him into your life. Make him the boss of your life. It'll change everything.
Instant obedience will teach you more about God than a lifetime of Bible discussions.
God is always more interested in why we do something than in what we do. Attitudes count more than achievements.
You must begin with God.
The greatest tragedy is not death, but life without purpose.
Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose, life has no meaning. Without meaning, life has no significance or hope.
Never confuse activity with productivity.
Frankness is not a license to say anything you want, wherever and whenever you want. It is not rudeness.
When you understand that life is a test, you realize that nothing is insignificant in your life.
