The Bible teaches that we are to love people and use money, but we often get that reversed and you start loving money and using people to get more money. Money is simply a tool to be used for good.
Don't waste your pain; use it to help others.
A ministry doesn't have to be perfect for God to use and bless it.
If God only used perfect people, nothing would get done. God will use anybody if you're available.
When you use your life for God's glory, everything you do can become an act of worship
If others don't use their gifts, you get cheated, and if you don;t use your gifts, they get cheated.
If God only used perfect people, He would have no one to use.
The greatest use of your words is prayer. Talk to God about EVERYTHING, all the time. Maintain a running conversation.
Never use prayer as an excuse to procrastinate doing what you already know is the right thing to do.
Prayer is the greatest use of my words.
The things you’re most embarrassed about, most ashamed of, and most reluctant to share are the very tools God can use most powerfully to heal others
God loves to bring good out of bad. He loves to turn crucifixions into resurrections. Every obstacle is an opportunity. Every problem has potential. Every crisis is an opportunity for ministry. Every hurt God wants to use for His glory.
Life is about letting God use you for his purposes, not using him for your own purpose.
To make the best use of your life, you must never forget two truths: First, compared with eternity, life is extremely brief. Second, earth is only a temporary residence. You won't be here long, so don't get too attached.
