Do not be afraid to allow the Holy Spirit to reveal any unforgiveness or bitterness. The longer you hide it, the stronger it will become and the harder your heart will grow. Stay tenderhearted.

God doesn't author hardship but uses it to strengthen us for greater conquests. He never leads us into a storm that He doesn't give us the power to overcome.

Grace gives us the power to live, and mercy keeps us free from guilt, condemnation, and shame.

An offended heart is the breeding ground of deception.

The Spirit of God is jealous over us; He doesn't want superficial fellowship, but genuine intimacy.

True humility is absolute obedience and dependence on God. It puts Him first, others second, and ourselves third in all things.

If we don’t risk being hurt, we cannot give unconditional love. Unconditional love gives others the right to hurt us.

God is seeking those who hear His call to a life of worship. Those who heed are those who will walk in His presence. They will know Him intimately as He will manifest Himself to them.

We all have life-defining moments. They are like open-book tests, but we don't know we have been examined until it is over.

We don't honor just to get a reward; we honor because it is the heart of God, and it is our delight.

Physical maturity is bound to time. Spiritual maturity is bound to obedience.

I have a kind heart, I’m in love. It gets deeper with every kiss and every hug.

It's tough being AWESOME all the time, but the kids need someone to look up to!

Like a turnip such a head could be blown away very easily. For where a man was weak, a woman has unmanned him. It would be a mercy to blow such a man away.

I'm definitely a guitar player, but it's the last thing I listen to in a song, after the singer and the drums.

I’ve seen - both in myself and my competitors - how satisfaction can lead to a lack of vigilance, then to mistakes and missed opportunities.

If you cannot solve the proposed problem try to solve first some related problem.

I like big, open, spare landscapes. There's lots of room. Nobody bothers you... I feel as if I can think there.

We have now educated ourselves into a state of complete imbecility.

Each state of life has its special duties; by their accomplishments one may find happiness.

If you run away from trouble, it always follows.
