“Guard your tongue, and use it for good instead of evil. How many marriages or friendships have been destroyed because of criticism that spiraled out of control? How many relationships have broken down because of a word spoken thoughtlessly or in anger? A harsh word can’t be taken back; no apology can fully repair its damage.”

“[Our] problems boil down to one of moral choices.
God wanted a world based on moral values,

“What shall I do, then, with Jesus who is called
the Christ?” (Matthew 27:22 NIV). This is the most important question that has ever been asked. It is also the question you must ask yourself.”

“When the “evil day” comes, we do not have to be dependent upon the circumstances around us, but rather on the resources of God!”
