“The Bible is to your soul what bread is to your body. You need it daily. One good meal does not suffice for a lifetime.”

There comes a moment when we all must realize that life is short, and in the end the only thing that really counts is not how others see us, but how God sees us.

You cannot build a superstructure on a cracked foundation.

Be assured that there is no sin you have ever committed that the blood of Jesus Christ cannot cleanse.

The moment we take our last breath on earth, we take our first in heaven.

Each generation faces different issues and challenges, but our standard must always be measured by God’s Word.

I don’t want to see religious bigotry in any form. It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it.

Forgiveness does not come easily to us, especially when someone we have trusted betrays our trust. And yet if we do not learn to forgive, we will discover that we can never really rebuild trust.

Live each day as if it were your last for some day it will be.

The greatest need in the world is the transformation of human nature. We need a new heart that will not have lust and greed and hate in it. We need a heart filled with love and peace and joy, and that is why Jesus came into the world.

True prayer is a way of life, not just for use in cases of emergency.

On our knees we are the most powerful force on earth.

When life is hard it’s easy to focus only on the bad things and forget all about the good things God has given us. But God has blessed every one of us in ways we often overlook.

Integrity means that if our private life were suddenly exposed, we’d have no reason to be ashamed or embarrassed. Integrity means that our outward life is consistent with our inner convictions.

To be peacemaker, you must know the peace giver.

The cross shows us the seriousness of our sin-but it also shows us the immeasurable love of God.

The thing that kept Christ on that cross was love, not the nail.

Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge.

How we need another soul to cling to, another body to keep us warm. To rest and trust; to give your soul in confidence: I need this, I need someone to pour myself into.

The soul helps the body, and at certain moments raises it. It is the only bird that sustains its cage.

Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.

The mind commands the body and is instantly obeyed. The mind commands itself and meets resistance.

Before I give my body, I must give my thoughts, my mind, my dreams.

Go back and take care of yourself. Your body needs you, your feelings need you, your perceptions need you. Your suffering needs you to acknowledge it. Go home and be there for all these things.

I drink a lot of coconut water. It balances out all the other toxic stuff I put into my body.
