Life is full of choice but faith in God will affect them all.
If you turn to Jesus as your last resort, He will become your result
If you know where you are going, you will not be afraid of where you are now.
When you give the devil attention, it will give you direction

"If your faith says yes, God cannot say no",
"Living a daily life of absolute faith in God is the only secret to great success",

You are born in the interior (your locality) by the inferior (your parents) and called by the superior (God)
Cleverness takes you up but it is integrity that keeps you there.
Battles does not destroy a Christian but rather, it strengthens him.
A big head without a big brain is a big load to the neck
