"GUILT WANTS US TO KEEP A JOURNAL OF OUR FAILURES, GRACE DOESN'T EVEN WRITE THEM DOWN."
"GOD WILL DELAY CERTAIN PROMISES UNTIL YOU GET FROM AROUND CERTAIN PEOPLE. DON'T BE YOUR OWN BLESSING BLOCKER."
DON'T WORRY ABOUT WHAT'S NEXT, ENJOY WHAT'S NOW! MATTHEW 6:34, "GIVE YOUR ENTIRE ATTENTION TO WHAT GOD IS DOING RIGHT NOW, AND DON’T GET WORKED UP ABOUT WHAT MAY OR MAY NOT HAPPEN TOMORROW. GOD WILL HELP YOU DEAL WITH WHATEVER HARD THINGS COME UP WHEN THE TIME COMES."
PRAY MORE AND YOU'LL PANIC LESS.
STOP TRYING TO RECONNECT WITH PEOPLE GOD DELIBERATELY DISCONNECTED YOU FROM.
NOT EVERY PERSON THAT VISITS YOUR LIFE IS SUPPOSED TO BECOME A RESIDENT.
ROWING FASTER DOESN'T HELP IF THE LEADERSHIP IS SLOWLY HEADING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION.
WE'RE SO QUICK TO DISQUALIFY OURSELVES FROM OPPORTUNITIES BECAUSE OTHERS HAVE TRIED AND FAILED. BUT HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED THAT MAYBE THE DOOR WAS CLOSED TO THEM BECAUSE GOD RESERVED IT FOR YOU? WALK IN THERE LIKE YOU KNOW GOD SENT YOU, BECAUSE HE DID! NOW GO FOR IT!

IF YOU SIT WITH CHICKENS IN THE COOP, YOU CAN'T FLY WITH EAGLES IN THE SKY! REEXAMINE YOUR ASSOCIATIONS, AND GET RID OF ANYONE WHO MESSES UP YOUR ALTITUDE!"
SURROUND YOURSELF WITH PEOPLE WHO LOOK MORE LIKE YOUR FUTURE AND LESS LIKE YOUR PAST!
"EVERYONE THAT SAYS THEY LOVE YOU DON'T ACTUALLY LOVE YOU. MANY JUST LOVE THE BENEFITS PACKAGE THAT COMES ATTACHED TO YOU. STOP GIVING LEECHES YOUR LOYALTY"

Only God can turn your mess into a message, your test into a testimony, your misery into a ministry, and your weakness into a witness.
There is in Christ quiet rest and sweet refreshment for God's people when wearied with the buffetings of Satan. Jonathan Edwards
A person who can show no mark in the sanctifying work of God in their life has no assurance that they have been justified. - Paul Washer
Shepherds, rest in the Lord. The Word always accomplishes its God-intended purpose. It never returns void, and God will give the growth. All glory to Him!
There is nothing that God so requireth our likeness unto Him, in our conformity unto His image, as in these — namely, mercy, grace, and readiness to forgive. And the contrary frame in any he doth of all things most abhor. —
John Owen, Exposition Upon Psalm CXXX; Works 6:486
Life is not a series of chances, with a few providences sprinkled between, to keep up a justly failing belief, but one providence of God.
