I had a battle going on in my head: shall I just enjoy my life and then convert on my deathbed? But I felt I couldn't do that - it was now or never - so I took a step of faith and became a Christian.

Leave your comfortable life and go in search of your kingdom.

As you emphasize your life, you must localize and define it... you cannot do everything.

One life totally devoted to God is of more value to Him than one hundred lives which have been simply awakened by His Spirit.

If you don't live by priorities, you'll live by pressures. Either you determine what's important in life or other people will determine it for you.

Between this day and the next you will give your life to something. The decision on what that will be will shape your destiny.

Tennis is my job, but it's not my life.

The most successful people in life are the ones who settle their critical issues early and manage them daily.

If you make the goal of your life just to stay alive, you'll fail. If you make the goal of your life the kingdom, you cannot lose.

Life is bringing me everything I need and MORE!

In the preaching of the kingdom, law and gospel come together. The coming of the kingdom is the coming of a King to enforce his law on a disobedient world, that is, to enforce his covenant against covenant-breakers. But the King who comes is full of love and forgiveness. So his coming is good news, gospel, not only because he judges the wicked, but because he brings redemption, forgiveness, and reward to his redeemed people.

Does it make sense to pray for guidance about the future if we are not obeying in the thing that lies before us today? How many momentous events in Scripture depended on one person's seemingly small act of obedience! Rest assured: Do what God tells you to do now, and, depend upon it, you will be shown what to do next.
