“Friends make life a lot more fun.”

The remarkable thing is, we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.

One of the problems with worry is that it keeps you from enjoying what you have.

Consistency: It’s the jewel worth wearing; It’s the anchor worth weighing; It’s the thread worth weaving; It’s a battle worth winning.

If you are having difficulty loving or relating to an individual, take him to God. Bother the Lord with this person. Don’t you be bothered with him – leave him at the throne.

Strength comes from choosing to fully trust, pray, and praise. Our circumstances may not change, but in the process we change.

Tell yourself right now and throughout today, that it’s okay to draw away from the maddening crowd. Jesus did; so can you.

Every one of us can blame somebody for something that has happened in our lives. But don’t waste your time. What we need most is a steady stream of love flowing among us. Love that quickly forgives, willingly overlooks, and refuses to take offense.

It helps me if I remember that God is in charge of my day – not I.

Don’t seek more days in your life but more life in your days.

We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.

Don’t expect wisdom to come into your life like great chunks of rock on a conveyor belt. Wisdom comes privately from God as a byproduct of right decisions, godly reactions, and the application of spiritual principles to daily circumstances.

There is no counsel like God’s counsel. No comfort like His comfort. No wisdom more profound than the wisdom of the Scriptures.

Believing in grace is one thing. Living it is another.

People who are close to God cultivate a personal intimacy with Him like a good gardener cultivates beautiful flowers.

Do you want to be wise? Choose wise friends

One of the marks of maturity is the ability to disagree without becoming disagreeable.

Above our life we love a steadfast friend.

Happiness begins with you. Not with your relationship, your friends, or your job. but with you.

For when two beings who are not friends are near each other there is no meeting, and when friends are far apart there is no separation.

There’s a friendly tie of some sort between music and eating.

We can let go of the person or love or friendship without letting go of the lesson.

Prayer is a friendly conversation with the One we know loves us.

Work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls – family, health, friends, integrity – are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered.

A good scientist values criticism almost higher than friendship: no, in science criticism is the height and measure of friendship.
