graduation sweet yes-you-can
Let your life yield a sweet, winsome melody that this old world needs so desperately. Yes you can if you will.
beautiful adventure beautiful-things
The beautiful thing about this adventure called faith is that we can count on Him never to lead us astray.
determination men common
Nothing is so common as unsuccessful men with talent. They lack only determination.
jesus goal focus
We want a crowd to make us feel important and liked. But why is getting a crowd our focus? Jesus never suggested that crowds were the goal. He never addresses getting your church to grow. Never.
children father men
Authentic men aren't afraid to show affection, release their feelings, hug their children, cry when they're sad, admit it when they're wrong, and ask for help when they need it.
men humanity doe
When a person does something, it has the man or woman look about it. It drips with humanity. You can follow the logic of it and see the meaning behind it.
family children home
Focus on your marriage. Because that's the nucleus of the home, whatever you do to restore its health and strength will naturally restore what's broken among the other relationships. If you have no children yet, this will make a comfortable nest for them to begin life well. If you have children, the changes you make in your marriage will affect the rest of the household more quickly and dramatically than you think.
courage pain real
Courage is not limited to the battlefield or the Indianapolis 500 or bravely catching a thief in your house. The real tests of courage are much quieter. They are the inner tests, like remaining faithful when nobody's looking, like enduring pain when the room is empty, like standing alone when you're misunderstood.
christian integrity christian-inspirational
Nothing speaks louder or more powerfully than a life of integrity
christian pace crowds
If the pace and the push, the noise and the crowds are getting to you, it's time to stop the nonsense and find a place of solace to refresh your spirit
family lonely ties
I know of no realm of life that can provide more companionship in a lonely world or greater feelings of security and purpose in chaotic times than the close ties of a family.
power retreat looks
Stand still... and refuse to retreat. Look at it as God looks at it and draw upon His power to hold up under the blast.
wisdom believe good-listener
Good listeners believe they can learn something from everyone.
procrastination joy mind
The habit of always putting off an experience until you can afford it, or until the time is right, or until you know how to do it is one of the greatest burglars of joy. Be deliberate, but once you've made up your mind -jump in.
