***It is our wisdom to make the best of that which is, for it is seldom that changing our place is mending it. -Matthew Henry
***God's ways are not always the most practical, popular, or unopposed, but they are the most blessed.
***How sad it is when people only HEAR about God's blessing, but never experience it, because they are not in the place where God can bless them. -Warren Wiersbe
***Obedience to God is often wrought with a slew of obstacles that persuade us to change our minds.
***Lack of honest communication has to be one of the ultimate destroyers of relationships, while learning the
quality of gracious but bold speech can be a balm in bitter & complicated situations.
***When God is at work, bitter hopelessness can be the beginning of some surprising good -Hubbard
***May the gospel's truth silence every accusing voice & erase every guilty thought.
***Just as the hollow of winter mysteriously gives rise to the bounty of spring, so times of humbling & hardship prepare us for a wealth of blessing we would have otherwise been unable to handle.
***Its possible that God is more inclined to tend to our outbursts than our detached silence.
***This may be one of the most tragic ways for a Christian to spend her life: In the right place with all the right resources but without a willing heart. ........I so desperately do not want to get to the end of my life to find I've missed having an eternal impact because I made all of life's decisions based solely on what made sense for me & what was for my benefit - unwilling to yield myself to the Lord.
***All I know is that laying down our lives for others, for the sake of Jesus, is never wasted. No matter how quiet, how humble, how thankless, God is making a name for you - one that will last an eternity.
