Living to create an earthly legacy is a short-sighted goal.
Everytime you forgive you disappoint the devil.

Temptation always starts in your mind, not in circumstances.
Eternal values, not temporal ones, should become the deciding factors for your decisions.
Kindness always starts with noticing the needs and hurts of others.

Your past, present, and future are taken care of as you put your trust in Jesus.
When you have a major loss in your life, the first thing you need to do is tell God exactly how you feel.
