“When you think about a problem over and over in your mind, that’s called worry. When you think about God’s Word over and over in your mind, that’s meditation. If you know how to worry, you already know how to meditate!”

“Este es el secreto para una vida de adoración: Hacer todo como si lo hicieras para Jesús. Una paráfrasis lo expresa así: «Toma tu vida cotidiana, la vida de todos los días —tu descanso, tus comidas, tu trabajo, y tus idas y venidas— y ponlas como una ofrenda ante Dios».”

“God is not just the starting point of your life; he is the source of it. To discover your purpose in life you must turn to God’s Word, not the world’s wisdom. You must build your life on eternal truths, not pop psychology, success-motivation, or inspirational stories. The Bible says, “It’s in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ and got our hopes up, he had his eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose he is working out in everything and everyone.”
