- The ability to laugh at yourself is the foundation for a sense of humor.
- Anything which has not been attempted, is impossible.
- Grace: We get what we don't deserve.
Mercy: We don't get what we do deserve.
- The beauty of Innocence, is its vulnerability.
- Sometimes, when you don't know what to do next, it is best to do nothing. Wait until you know what to do, before you act.
- Always leave the toilet seat down.
- Knowledge is the accumulation of facts and information; Wisdom is the ability to correctly use or apply the facts and information.
- The price of sight is risk and faith. People choose to be blind because they think blindness has no cost.
- Before you judge someone for something, first be absolutely certain that you yourself are perfect.
- The fruit of the Spirit is the fruit of God's Spirit, not the human spirit; therefore, the more of God you have in you, the more fruit you will have in your life.
- In nature, objects follow the path of least resistance. In order for a Christian to grow, he or she must follow the path of most resistance.
- Steve's definition of Sovereignty: God is God, and you are not.
- Everything God does in our lives, he does to make us dependent upon Him.
- The best thing to do when you make a mistake, is to learn from it and move on.
- What we go through in our past, and how we react to it, shapes us into whom we are today.
- I once heard it said that, "Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care."
- It is often said that you can't take anything with you when you die. But I believe we can take whatever our heart’s can carry.
- To prevent sunburn, you must reduce your exposure to the sun. To prevent apostasy, you must increase your exposure to God’s Son.
- God is not looking for people who are qualified for the job, He’s looking for people who are available.
- Perhaps if we spent more time on our knees, we wouldn’t fall down as much.
- If something needs to give - perhaps it should be me.
- There is always someone who will blame you for their incompetence, but God’s grace takes responsibility.
- I once heard a wise man say: “you can count the seeds in an apple, but you can’t count the apples in a seed.”
- If you were to ask me where to find God, I would tell you to look just beyond the shadow of a doubt.
- God puts inconsiderate people in the world so that we won’t take consideration for granted.
- The problem I have with making mental notes is that I always forget to read them.
- You’re either part of the problem or part of the solution. Most people choose to be part of the problem because it takes less effort than being part of the solution.
- When you obey God, He is responsible for the consequences.
- What we disagree about is sometimes not as important as how we disagree.
- The definition of responsibility: I don’t have a problem, I am the problem.
- If you're going to be a bumper sticker Christian, be sure you drive like one.
- God tests to bring out our best. Satan tempts to bring out our worst.
- Your actions are speaking so loudly that I cannot hear what you are saying.
- You must be heavenly minded to be of any earthly good.
- Grief is God's love expressed through tears.
- If we are not transparent, God's love cannot shine through.
