So,
no more excuses now. God can use you to your full potential.
Besides you aren't the message, you are just the messenger.
In the circle of God's love, God's waiting to use your full potential.
1 God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
2 Dear God, I have a problem, it's me.
3 Growing old is inevitable ... growing UP is optional.
4 There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
5 Silence is often misinterpreted but never misquoted.
6 Do the maths ... count your blessings.
7 Faith is the ability to not panic.
8 Laugh every day, it's like inner jogging.
9 If you worry, you didn't pray ... If you pray, don't worry.
10 As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home every day.
11 Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape.
12 The most important things in your house are the people.
13 When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still
so he can untangle the knot.
14 A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
15 He who dies with the most toys is still dead.
"God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change ... the
courage to change the one I can - and the wisdom to know it's me."
