Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want. It is the belief that God will do what is right.

A few songs with Him might change the way you sing. Forever.

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

The big news of the Bible is not that you fight for God but that God fights for you.

God is fond of you. If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it. If He had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning. Face it, friend, He's crazy about you.

The maker of the stars would rather die for you than live without you. And that is a fact. So if you need to brag, brag about that.

Fear never wrote a symphony or poem, negotiated a peace treaty, or cured a disease. Fear never pulled a family out of poverty or a country out of bigotry. Fear never saved a marriage or a business. Courage did that. Faith did that. People who refused to consult or cower to their timidities did that. But fear itself? Fear herds us into a prison and slams the doors. Wouldn't it be great to walk out?

Focus on giants - you stumble. Focus on God - Giants tumble.
