If I were a flower, I would be a sunflower.
To always follow the sun, Turn my back to darkness,
Stand proud, tall and straight.
Even with my head full of seeds! |

No time for God? What fools we are to clutter up our lives with common things, and leave without heart's gate the Lord of life. As soon to say, "No time to eat or sleep or love or die." Take time for God or you shall dwarf your soul, and when the angel of death comes knocking at your door, a poor misshapen thing you'll be, to step into eternity. |
The fumes of success can smother your faith as fast as failure can extinguish your hope. It is the security we find in Jesus that never changes. He is our rock and our refuge. He never moves. He is not shaken. | You are made of the dust of this earth, and you are made of the happiness of heaven, and you are flesh and you are spirit, and you are of two worlds longing for the home of forever and Him. |
| The Creator of the mineral-studded mountain ranges and fragrant forests also created and arranged 100 billion galaxies. He can easily remember the names and locations of trillions of stars. His knowledge and wisdom are inexhaustible. If he never loses track of a star, then certainly He can keep track of you and me! |

You are a great God. Your character is holy, your truth absolute, your strength unending, and your discipline fair. Your provisions are abundant for our needs; your light is adequate for our path. Your grace is sufficient for our sins... Your are never early, never late... You sent your Son in the fullness of time and He will return at the consummation of time. Your plan is perfect! Bewildering. Puzzling. Troubling. But perfect! (From Safe in the Shepherd's Arms by Mac Lucado) |

| A CHALLENGE - A CHOICE Behind the scenes where we cannot see, A hand divine works the things that be, And brings to my path the scheme devised By the Maker of earth who built the skies, But He leaves me to choose the life He plans, Or to walk the way of self’s demands, To build on the rock or the sinking sands. |

| He cannot have taught us To trust in his name, And thus far have brought us To put us to shame. For each Ebenezer We hold in review Confirms his sure purpose To bring us safe through. (written by John Newton ) |
| The life alienated from God collapses when deprived of its support from the media and the morally disordered environment in which we now dwell. But the life in tune with God is actually nurtured by time spent alone. (Dallas Willard) |
