I admit that at times my prayer for my children is nothing more than vocalized unbelief aimed at God.

We need days of failure because they help humble us, and through them we can see how God's grace is poured out on the humble.

Believe that God is strong enough to save your children, no matter how you fail.

Idolatry, like all sin, is devastating to the soul. It cuts us off from the comforts of grace, the peace of conscience, and the joy that is to be our strength.

The one encouragement we can always give our children (and one another) is that God is more powerful than our sin, and He's strong enough to make us want to do the right thing.

We are partners with our children because we are just like them, dearly loved sinners.

I did my best parenting by prayer. I began to speak less to the kids and more to God. It was actually quite relaxing.

God never encourages self-reliance.

I thought parenting was going to reveal my strengths, never realizing that God had ordained it to reveal my weaknesses.

Idolatry is always subject to the law of diminishing returns.

My life is so bad that it's worse than it really is.

Everyone make mistakes and you learn a lesson from them. But, sometimes just one mistake made in influence of something can ruins your whole life.

Your soul fountain will never drain until the instant of eternity will halt before it to drink the water of death.

Even in a hero's heart Discretion is the better part.

Nature learns and changes as a result of stimuli, and certain habitats of nature will be formed that weren't there before. That's how I look at reality.

I've been curious ever since I was a little kid.

Conscious writing can be the death of poetry.

Golden bridge, silver bridge or diamond bridge; it doesn't matter! As long as the bridge takes you across the other side, it is a good bridge!

I can't say that I've fully achieved my dream yet. I'm just starting to evolve.

I don't fight anybody anytime or anywhere.
