@ReidRomance you're so right. "There was a difference between making allowances for someone based on extenuating circumstances and allowing people to treat you like crap due to their extenuating circumstances".

[Rick Warren @RickWarren]

The things you wish were most removed from your life are often what God uses to shape you & make you into who he wants you to be. He wants to use that problem for good in your life. There’s something more important than your pain - what you’re learning from that pain. @RickWarren

@BethMooreLPM You must be a very wonderful grandma to receive such a big hug like that 😍 I wish my daughter had the same reaction like yours when seeing her grandmas...

Take your rest, Queen E.

I didn't realize that I needed some alone time with God until I chose to listen to Holy Roar @christomlin. Those songs bring so much joy and light to my soul.
Thank you @christomlin for leading me to praise God and dance.

My patience with mean or angry or judgmental folks increased greatly when a friend taught me to stop asking (in my mind) "What's WRONG with you?"
and start asking (in my mind) "What HAPPENED to you?"

What made you so angry or mean?
Hurt people hurt other people

@aharmon_author Don't be sad, Amy, those people don't have fans all over the world, including from Indonesia (me). Only people with beautiful heart can write beautiful books like yours

"Don't ask me what I did — ask me what I did not do. I didn't clip her wings."

During the #MalalaTownHall, @Malala's father, @ZiauddinY, shares some wisdom for all the fathers out there: let your daughters soar.

Jesus, be near the frightened, the suffering, the fleeing, the hiding, the shivering, the aching, the bleeding & dying on this globe tonight. Send word of your mercy reaching them as we pray for your outstretched arm to save. Rush to aid. Be swift to Shield. Be made known, Jesus.

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

This is going to sound all manner of trite but I could not mean it more. If you belong to Christ & have either jumped or been thrown out of a boat, you don’t have to drown. If you’ll trust in Jesus, he is either going to teach you to swim or summon you to walk with him on water.

In staff meeting, one of our pastors asked us to pray for his mom because she’s having a bad flare-up with her medical condition.

She lives in another state and is part of a different church, but I asked if I could call her.

He said yes and gave me her number.

Once a man was asked “What did you gain by regularly praying to God?”The man replied, “Little. But let me tell you what I lost: anger, ego, depression, insecurity, and fear of death.”

Sometimes the answer to our prayers is not gaining but losing.

[Rick Warren @RickWarren]

If you live for the approval of others,
you'll die by their rejection.

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

I promise you based on the authority of Scripture & spotless character of the Judge, the Ancient of Days, before whom all will stand, these people who use piety & hyper fundamentalism to cloak their egregious crimes against children will face Him who is both Judge & eyewitness.

A great marriage is the result of the union of two great forgivers.

[Christina Edmondson @DrCEdmondson]

You can be honest, a bonafide truth-teller and still practice the discipline of self-control with words.

It is a legit discipline. Discipline.

Visualizing the echo of words well into the future is applied wisdom.
