@johnmarkclifton Amen, brother Mark! Thank you for your sensitivity towards, and recognition of, God’s servants who are faithfully laboring for our Lord in smaller, out-of-the-way places. God bless them all!
@richardblackaby Thank you, Dr. Blackaby, for coming and sharing your heart for prayer with us! Trusting that what we gained from your teaching on prayer will stay with us and truly revolutionize our individual prayer life and that of our church! God bless you, friend!
God had blessed @FloridaBaptists with incredibly strong gospel ministries, in Florida and beyond. I’m thankful to get on board with our great pastors and churches as we strengthen our kingdom work together.
Stop rewinding the cassette tape of your past sins, disappointments, and failures. Start streaming grace. Because you are in Christ, you are faultless in God's sight (Ephesians 1:4). Yes, grace is this amazing ✝️

We don’t know how many more years we will live or how many more years of ministry we will have. We never know when the Lord will call us home.
That is why we want to be ready to meet God. And we want to live lives that are worth emulating.
Corrie ten Boom, a very godly woman who survived horrible things in a concentration camp during the Holocaust, said, “The measure of a life, after all, is not its duration, but its donation.”
Make every day count.
Think of people who have made history because they stood up for what is right and what is true.
Edward Everett Hale said, “I am only one, but I am one; I cannot do everything, but I can do something. What I can do, I ought to do. And what I ought to do, by the grace of God, I will do.”
We tend to think that success is defined by a long life. It is—if it is lived for the glory of God. But even a short life, if it is lived for God’s glory, is still a success.
Live this day for the glory of God.
If you resent the way someone has mistreated you, if you are holding it against that person, hoping you can get back at them, ask God to free you from that bondage. The secret…FORGIVENESS! Trust me on this one…you’ll never regret forgiving someone who doesn’t deserve it!
