Peace has in it trust in the Lord, that He governs all things, provides all things, and leads to a good end.
If you desire to please God with the decision you make and afterward it proves to be a mistake, it’s an error not an end.
God answers our prayers not because we are good, but because He is good.
The Holy Spirit upon my left leads my feet without ceasing into the camp of the righteous and into the tents of the free.
Leading with integrity is embracing honesty! We should always use our weaknesses to point others to Christ's strength.
As Elisabeth Elliot points out, not even dying a martyr’s death is classified as extraordinary obedience when you are following a Savior who died on a cross. Suddenly a martyr’s death seems like normal obedience.
No matter what you’re going through there's no pit so deep that God can’t reach in and get you out.
The wizard [of Oz] says look inside yourself and find self. God says look inside yourself and find [the Holy Spirit]. The first will get you to Kansas. The latter will get you to heaven. Take your pick.
I strongly believe in the existence of God, based on intuition, observations, logic, and also scientific knowledge.
When he says we’re forgiven, let’s unload the guilt. When he says we’re valuable, let’s believe him. . . . When he says we’re provided for, let’s stop worrying. God’s efforts are strongest when our efforts are useless

Life is no straight and easy corridor along which we travel free and unhampered, but a maze of passages, through which we must seek our way, lost and confused, now and again checked in a blind alley.

It may look impossible, but God can do the impossible. Just because you don’t see anything happening doesn’t mean God is not working
Our God is abundant in love and steadfast in mercy. He saves us, not because we trust in a symbol, but because we trust in a Savior.
When you acknowledge God, He will go before you and make the crooked places straight.
I believe passionately that Christianity is a way of life, not a theological system with which one must be in intellectual agreement.

When we believe or say we have been offended, we usually mean we feel insulted, mistreated, snubbed, or disrespected. And certainly clumsy, embarrassing, unprincipled, and mean-spirited things do occur in our interactions with other people that would allow us to take offense.

To be offended is a choice we make; it is not a condition inflicted or imposed upon us by someone or something else.

To be an overachiever you have to be an over believer.
