There is no enemy can hurt us but by our own hands. Satan could not hurt us, if our own corruption betrayed us not. Afflictions cannot hurt us without our own impatience.

Take care of running before you are sent. Keep your wills in equipoise till God's hand gives the impulse and direction.

    Author: Alexander MacLaren

    Author: Joyce Meyer

Let's help people get on board with what God wants to give them, but what we don't want is the process. Everyone wants the product.

    Author: Chip Ingram
