The hard, cold fact of reality is that we have our free-agency and it will not be abrogated merely because we make choices which make ourselves and others miserable. The secret is to use our freedom wisely.


Maybe we ought to stop wringing our hands in anxiety and fold them in prayer.


It is not as important to concentrate on who our rescuer is as it is to be thankful that we were rescued.


Are you a true believer in the Kingdom, or are you just a tourist passing through?


Beware when you are feted before the large and raucous crowd for someday you will stand before a much smaller and quieter assembly: the judgment bar of God.


I have solemnly and sadly observed that the quiet and gradual relinquishment of faith results in surrender to the world.


Succumbing to temptation means one has grossly undervalued himself and overvalued the temptation.

How easy it is to get caught in the traps of the world and how hard it is to extricate one’s self.


Our tendency to belong and to be loved should not permit us to be manipulated and maneuvered.


To follow good principles and ideals is good. But it is better to be those principles and ideals.
