Prejudice is a learned trait. You're not born prejudiced you're taught it.
Charles R. Swindoll
Not every Christian finds it easy to believe.
Charles R. Swindoll
The pursuit of happiness is a matter of choice...it is a positive attitude we choose to express. It is not a gift delivered to our door each morning, nor does it come through the window. And it is certain that our circumstances are not the things that make us joyful. If we wait for them to get just right, we will never laugh again.

If I had my life to live over, I'd have spent more hours in worship.

There are times we need to tell ourselves, Good job! when we know that is true.

Your call will become clear as as your mind is transformed by the reading of Scripture and the internal work of God's Spirit. The Lord never hides His will from us. In time, as you obey the call first to follow, your destiny will unfold before you. The difficulty will lie in keeping other concerns from diverting your attention.
Charles R. Swindoll
There is no counsel like God's counsel. No comfort like His comfort. No wisdom more profound than the wisdom of the Scriptures.

We have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for the day. Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it. Our attitude is everything.

No pressure is greater than God's power.

I think it is important to begin with a statement in your speech that grabs the attention of the audience. I try to make my opening line 15 words or less.

Envy is one of the great enemies of active spirituality. It keeps us from loving our neighbours, from functioning with others in community, and from affirming people's unique worth. It also steals contentment from the heart. Is there anything or anyone you are envious of?
Charles R. Swindoll
God never calls His people to accomplish anything without promising to supply their every need.
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
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.
Charles R. Swindoll
When it seems like that's all there is, remember all you have in Him.

Allowing anger to seethe on the back burner will lead to a very large lid blowing off a very hot pot.
