The greatest stance that I can take has nothing to do with standing, rather it has everything to do with dropping…to my knees.

How often have I lifted my foot to take a peek at what I’m standing on, only to discover that there’s nothing there and that I’ve been confusing ‘falling’ with ‘standing.

The losses in my life are so immense that I can barely stand and hardly breath. But I must remember that it is God who holds my hand and grants me breath. And because He does, the losses will eventually collapse for lack of breath.

The greatest men stand on their values and pray on their knees.

It’s not the image of standing on my principles that I want my children to remember. Rather, it’s understanding that being on my knees was the single thing that allowed me to stand on those principles.

It would be infinitely more prudent to be a single “David” standing with God, than a million “Goliath’s” standing without Him.

Too often it’s about what stands before us, not what stands within us.

Love stands even when the desire to love doesn’t.

The dark might be dark, but at least we don’t have to look at ourselves when we’re standing in it.
