“Do you want to be wise? Choose wise friends”

Oh, how horrible our sins look when they are committed by someone else.

We must cease striving and trust God to provide what He thinks is best and in whatever time He chooses to make it available. But this kind of trusting doesn’t come naturally. It’s a spiritual crisis of the will in which we must choose to exercise faith.

It’s a delightful thing to receive a good word just at your time of need. Encourage someone today.

Another problem with worry is that it makes you forget your worth. Worry makes you feel worthless, forgotten, and unimportant.

You know one of the most encouraging things about faith? It pleases God.

People who inspire others are those who see invisible bridges at the end of dead-end streets

Honesty has a beautiful and refreshing simplicity about it. No ulterior motives. No hidden meanings. An absence of hypocrisy, duplicity, political games, and verbal superficiality. As honesty and real integrity characterize our lives, there will be no need to manipulate others.

People who soar, are those who refuse to sit back and wish things would change

Prayer is an investment. The time you dedicate to prayer isn’t lost; it will return dividends far greater than what a few moments spent on a task ever could. If we fail to cultivate this discipline, prayer winds up being our last resort rather than our first response.

The stronger the winds, the deeper the roots, and the longer the winds, the more beautiful the tree.

When Christ becomes our central focus, contentment replaces our anxiety as well as our fears and insecurities.

If God’s people are to be living examples of one thing, that thing ought to be – it must be – compassion.

The Lord delights to surprise us with His goodness, if only we will unlock the door of obedience with the key of faith – which He has given – and then push it open and walk through.

Make a plan now to keep a daily appointment with God. The enemy is going to tell you to set it aside, but you must carve out the time. If you’re too busy to meet with the Lord, friend, then you are simply too busy

Encouragement is awesome. Think about it. It has the capacity to lift a man’s or a woman’s shoulders. To breathe fresh air into the fading embers of a smoldering dream. To actually change the course of another human being’s day, week, or life.

Times may be hard and people may be demanding, but never forget that life is special. Every single day is a special day. God is at work in you!

Many of us don’t realize that we have a choice about which aspect of ourselves we will use as the foundation upon which we build our lives.

To govern is always to choose among disadvantages.

Be careful what you choose: You may get it.

The issue is now clear. It is between light and darkness and everyone must choose his side.

But difficult situations and wrong choices conspire to trap us in hopelessness.

Give your life to God; he can do more with it than you can!

And if it’s true that trust, like happiness is a choice, then I’ll take this leap of faith.

Healing is the process of accepting all, then choosing best.
