Multi-tasking is keeping me from whole-hearted worship.

Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.

The world says love yourself, grab all you can, follow your heart. Jesus says deny yourself, grab your cross and follow me.

But God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn't come through.

God has allowed hard things in your life so you can show the world that your God is great and that knowing Him brings peace and joy, even when life is hard.

God's definition of what matters is pretty straightforward. He measures our lives by how we love.

We never grow closer to God when we just live life. It takes deliberate pursuit and attentiveness.

Life is about Jesus. We are not here to tell our story, but His.

Don't fall into the trap of studying the Bible without doing what it says.

The irony is that while God doesn’t need us but still wants us, we desperately need God but don’t really want Him most of the time.

He wants all or nothing. The thought of a person calling himself a 'Christian' without being a devoted follower of Christ is absurd.

Success doesn't happen overnight. It takes hard work, dedication and keep your eyes on the prize. Don't look back.

I would rather be assassinated than see a single star removed from the American flag.

It is better to be true to what you believe, though that be wrong, than to be false to what you believe, even if that belief is correct.

Look on the grave where thou must sleep Thy last, and strongest foe; It is endurance not to weep, If that repose seem woe.

Secrecy sets barriers between men, but at the same time offers the seductive temptation to break through the barriers by gossip or confession.

It's a great thing when you feel that you recognize yourself, deeply and movingly, in a work of literature.

I wan’t a girl who is fun and loves adventure.

It drives me crazy when people say, "All we're trying to do is create entertainment." I feel like people go to movies for more than that.

The logical process will often be the safe one. I tend, when I'm given that choice, to go the way that's not safe.

Guys who are charismatic and fun-loving and sweet and generous are the ones I want to date.
