Brokenness forced me to change my frantic pace of life. If you could have seen how busy I was, you would have thought I believed the Bible said, "Be hyper and know that I am God." I had replaced intimacy with God with frenzied activity. I had to learn to stop going mach IV speed in a camel body. Imitating Martha came natural but the ways of Mary were foreign.

The first century money changers were in the temple, but they didn't have the spirit of the temple... They were out of sync with the whole purpose of the Lord's house. "The atmosphere of my Father's house," Jesus seemed to say, "is to be prayer. The aroma around my Father must be that of people opening their hearts in worship and supplication. This is not a place to make a buck. This is a house for calling on the Lord.

Rev. Richard J. Fairchild

Practically everyone has known the taste of Palm Sunday, the sweetness of success and popularity, and nearly all of us have tasted the bitterness of Good Friday, of failure and rejection. What saves us from an endless round of ups and downs, what frees us from the tyranny of events over which we have no control is our commitment to press forward in obedience to God -it is trust in God's love to bring about Easter morning, - knowing that the meaning of life is to be found in the knowledge and love of God,- and in sharing that knowledge and love with those who accompany us on the way.

God saw the heart of a king in David long before he even had a crown on his head. God doesn’t build kings on the stage; He builds them in the cave.

It is said that sheep may get lost simply by nibbling away at the grass and never looking up. That can be true for any of us. We can focus so much on what is immediately before us that we fail to see life in larger perspective.

Susannah Wesley

Whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, and takes off the relish of spiritual things - that to you is sin.

John Maxwell

To reach your potential, you must know where you want to go and where you currently are. Without both of these pieces of information, you’re liable to get lost.

John Bunyan

If thou wouldest be a good neighbour, take heed of thy tongue...That thou with it give no offensive language to thy neighbour, to the provoking of him to anger. Bear much, put up wrongs, and say little...And as thou shouldest take heed that thou be not the original of contention and anger, so also take heed that thou be not an instrument to beget it between parties, by tale-bearing and a gossiping spirit: "He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears."

Bill Johnson

Grace that does not lead us to becoming like Jesus is not grace. It's something else and definitely not Biblical grace.
