The end of the world is coming, but there’s not a thing anyone can do to stop it. . . . There’s no turning back with God

Sometimes we don't want God to be real because we want permission to sin without consequence. We want an intimate God on Sundays and an impersonal God who looks the other way for the rest of the week.

Our past may explain why we're suffering but we must not use it as an excuse to stay in bondage.

True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less

Forgiveness gives me boundaries because it unhooks me from the hurtful person, and then I can act responsibly, wisely. If I am not forgiving them, I am still in a destructive relationship with them

Where a people prays, there is the church; and where the church is; there is never loneliness.

Sometimes My blessings come to you in mysterious ways: through pain and trouble. At such times you can know My goodness only through your trust in Me. Understanding will fail you, but trust will keep you close to Me.
