Let your life yield a sweet, winsome melody that this old world needs so desperately. Yes you can if you will.
Charles R. Swindoll
Today is unique! It has never occurred and it will never be repeated. At midnight it will end, quietly, suddenly, totally. Forever. But the hours between now and then are opportunities with eternal possibilities.

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.

It's not enough merely to believe there is a God. You must believe in the God who is there.
Charles R. Swindoll
Don't expect wisdom to come into your life like great chunks of rock on a conveyor belt. Wisdom comes privately from God as a byproduct of right decisions, godly reactions, and the application of spiritual principles to daily circumstances.
Charles R. Swindoll
God seems to reward us with good, delightful experiences when we move with joy through the less-than-delightful times.
Charles R. Swindoll
Jesus' plan called for action, and how He expressed it predicted its success. He didn't say you 'might' be my witnesses, or you 'could' be my witnesses, or even you 'should' be my witnesses. He said you 'WILL' be my witnesses.
Charles R. Swindoll
I let people see the cracks in my life. We can't be phony. We've got to keep it real.
Charles R. Swindoll
Thanksgiving is a time of quiet reflection an annual reminder that God has, again, been ever so faithful. The solid and simple things of life are brought into clear focus.

Encouragement is awesome. Think about it. It has the capacity to lift a man's or a woman's shoulders. To breathe fresh air into the fading embers of a smoldering dream. To actually change the course of another human being's day, week, or life.
Charles R. Swindoll
Any idol, regardless of its beauty or usefulness or original purpose, is to be set aside so that Christ might reign supreme, without a single competitor.
Charles R. Swindoll
It's a delightful thing to receive a good word just at your time of need. Encourage someone today.
