That's what lordship is - Christ reigning as supreme authority over our life. Making Jesus Lord of our life is not something passive. It's not a state of being, it's a state of doing. Those whom Jesus recognizes as His own are those who do the will of His Father in heaven.

If someone writes a great story, people praise the author, not the pen. People don't say, 'Oh what an incredible pen...where can I get a pen like this so I can write great stories?' Well, I am just a pen in the hands of the Lord. He is the author. All praise should go to him.

I would have met Jesus sooner if not for Christians who led double lives.

Why do we idolise Christian singers and speakers? We go from glorifying musicians in the world to glorifying Christian musicians. It's all idolatry!Satan is getting a great victory as we seem to worship these ministers on tapes and records and clammer to get their autographs in churches and concert halls from coast to coast.

Lord, forgive the times I tried to read your mind.

Are you willing to stay right where you are and let the Lord do great things through you, though no one may seem to notice at all?

I've never tried to be controversial. The truth is controversial enough.

I'd rather have people hate me with the knowledge that I tried to save them.

If somebody writes a great poem, people don't run around applauding the pencil, saying 'Oh, what a great pencil'...I'm a pencil in God's hands.

If you don't have a definite call to stay here, you are called to go.
