For every verse in the Bible that tells us the benefits of wealth, there are ten that tell us the danger of wealth.

To forgive and forget is better than to resent and remember
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
Meekness is the willingness to place God above our own egos; weakness is a refusal to trust God in fighting for what is right.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
One of the paradoxes of confession is that we fear we will weaken our relationship with the person we confess to, but in reality, we strengthen the bond...God has given us the wonderful gift of mutual accountability, but too few of us actually take advantage of it because we are afraid of what others will think of us if we share our doubts, fears, concerns, sins, and failures. The devil is counting on this fear preventing us from becoming transparent with one another.

Forgiveness is man's deepest need and God's highest achievement

"Greed I've often regretted. Generosity-- never."

The reward of service is more service
