“Then Jesus changed the situation. When he paid for our sins on the cross, the veil in the temple that symbolized our separation from God was split from top to bottom, indicating that direct access to God was once again available.”

“If God only used perfect people, nohting would get done. God will use anybody if you're available.”

“The key to friendship with God, he said, is not changing what you do, but changing your attitude toward what you do.”

“Unfortunately, we forget the cruel details of the agonizing sacrifice God made on our behalf. Familiarity breeds complacency. Even before his crucifixion, the Son of God was stripped naked, beaten until almost unrecognizable, whipped, scorned and mocked, crowned with thorns, and spit on contemptuously.Abused and ridiculed by heartless men, he was treated worse than an animal.Then, nearly unconscious fromblood loss, he was forced to drag a cumbersome cross up a hill, was nailed to it, and was left to die the slow, excruciating torture of death by crucifixion. While his lifeblood drained out, hecklers stood by and shouted insults, making fun of his pain and challenging his claim to be God.”

“We're always just one decision away from disaster." "When you lack wisdom,ask God who gives generously to all."James1:5”

“The cross has two sides to it. One side is what Jesus did for us. He forgave us our sins. The other is the God side. God now lives in man!”

“God sometimes removes a person from your life for your protection. Don't run after them.”
