Love is not just sentiment; it's service

God knew all about the wickedness of the world, and still thought it worth saving.

Good night.

No one can build a reputation on what he's going to do tomorrow.

Some people ask the Lord to guide them; then they grab the steering wheel.

Work?!?!

The world is full of willing workers;
some willing to work, and others willing to let them work.

History?

It's just the accumulated stories of how God is working in the lives of all the individual people on the earth.

WAKE UP

More people would learn from their mistakes if they weren't so busy denying them.

A wise person will make more opportunities than they find.

A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

The true measure of God's love is that He loves without measure.

slow down.

before you speak, listen.

before you write, think.

before you pray, forgive.

before you quit, try.

Opportunity

When opportunity knocks, a grumbler complains about the noise.

Guide

Make this simple rule the guide of your life: to have no will but God's.

Victors

God wants us to be victors, not victims;

to soar, not sink;

to overcome, not to be overwhelmed.

Failure

Failure is something we can avoid by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.

love

wisdom

Command those who are rich
in this present world not to be arrogant
nor to put their hope in wealth,
which is so uncertain, but to put their
hope in God, who richly provides us
with everything for our enjoyment.

Command them to do good, to be
rich in good deeds, and to be generous
and willing to share. In this way they
will lay up treasure for themselves as
a firm foundation for the coming age,
so that they may take hold of the
life that is
truly life.

1Timothy 6:17-19

I'm not ashamed

Need a laugh? I was driving home from work one day this past summer and both lenses from my sunglasses popped out. I had just left my office, I still had 20 minutes to go. I was in such shock over the randomness of this situation. I couldn't stop laughing so I rode all the way home like this. Don't you wish you were as cool as me?? ;)
