When life feels like it is spinning out of control, remember that you are a lump of clay on God’s pottery wheel. Here are some ways He “shapes you on the wheel.”

When situations look impossible, remember that God has mighty resources at His disposal that are small in the world’s eyes. In Israel’s case, it was the “hornet.”

We all fail and fall. The secret of progress is a new set of hinds’ feet.

Life completely changes when you look at “reward” instead of “risk,” “grapes” instead of “giants.”

Don’t be frightened of the upheaval in banking, inflation, and borrowing. “Under His wings” is where you need to stay.

You know how good it feels for someone to do you a “favor.” A “favor” is unexpected, undeserved, and maybe not even imagined. God is a God of “favor.”  He delights in being compassionate, generous, merciful, and gracious. 

Skeptics are everywhere! They question everything, and they doubt everything. They challenge all positive change.

On the other side is the Holy Spirit, the one who brings faith and positivity. How can you overcome skepticism in the power of the Holy Spirit?

Balance is critical to progress in your marriage, family, business, and career.

Are you having a hard time ending something you should have ended long ago? Try these five things and you will finally succeed!

I read recently an amazing thought about President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation of 1863:  It was signed into law over two years before those in slavery actually had their freedom.

They were “legally” free but not “actually” free. Is that possibly happening to you?

It’s obvious I have a big family:  six children and my nineteenth grandchild soon to be born.  Now, we are watching our children change the world. These principles helped us to do that.

“Bushwacker” is the name of one of the fiercest and most dangerous bulls of all time. 

One top rider was thrown by Bushwacker and landed broken in the hospital.  His next time on Bushwacker, he defeated him…for the first time in history!

His secret?  “The first time I rode him, he owned me.  This time, I owned him before I went out there.  He was afraid of me, not me afraid of him.”

Everybody is buying stuff that is too hard to protect. Life becomes complex. How can we simplify our possessions so that they have less of a hold upon us?

The world is crazy about self-promotion. God’s mighty power, however, is revealed through humility.

If you are battling with anxiety, here are three truths that will make it DISAPPEAR!

I love the little glass peephole installed in our front doors, hotel room doors, etc. It gives you a chance to “check out” your caller and either open the door…or run away!

We need a “peephole” in the “front door” of our minds! It seems we just “throw the door open” to any and all thoughts that come calling.

My Daddy had a famous phrase: “Keep it simple, hang loose, travel light.” Our problem is that we are carrying too much stuff with us on the journey. I remember a time I was helping my daughter move home from London. She had at least eight suitcases. We were trying to get on the subway for the airport and I found myself at the bottom of an escalator sprawled on the floor with all eight piled on top of me! WE HAVE TOO MUCH STUFF.

Fear and timidity can paralyze you. Anxiety can control your every decision. Confusion can totally derail your life’s focus. The mind is the battleground of life. You will inevitably face storms and crisis. Your mind will be pressed to the breaking point. How do you persevere until the sun breaks through again?

I hate cruise control. I hate it but I love it. But I hate it. It is so limiting. It requires me to go only at a certain pace. I love it because I can relax and just ride. I hate it because I want to get there ahead of the guy in front of me! In our world today, everyone is in a hurry. Patients are dying in hospitals because of the haste to move on to the next patient. Everyone is on the move. We are squeezing every second out of one activity to pour into the next one.
