“When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened.”

“Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened.Billy Graham”

“I feel sorry for the man who has never known the bracing thrill of taking a stand and sticking to it fearlessly. Moral courage has rewards that timidity can never imagine. Like a shot of adrenaline, it floods the spirit with vitality”

“The will of God will not take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us.”

“The happiness which brings enduring worth to life is not the superficial happiness that is dependent on circumstances. It is the happiness and contentment that fills the soul even in the midst of the most distressing circumstances and the most bitter environment. It is the kind of happiness that grins when things go wrong and smiles through the tears. The happiness for which our souls ache is one undisturbed by success or failure, one which will deeply root inside us and give us inward relaxation, peace, and contentment, no matter what the surface problems may be. That kind of happiness stands in need of no outward stimulas.”

“God never takes away something from your life without replacing it with something better.”

“When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost.”
