Do your duty and leave the rest to heaven.

Highly functioning self-actualized people simply never imagine what it is that they don't wish to have as their reality.

The thing that's important for me is to remember what's the most important thing.

It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God's name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.

My favorite affirmation when I feel stuck or out of sorts is: Whatever I need is already here, and it is all for my highest good. Jot this down and post it conspicuously throughout your home, on the dashboard of your car, at your office, on your microwave oven, and even in front of your toilets!

To find Me and hear My voice, you must seek Me above all else. Anything that you desire more than Me becomes an idol.

Do not let your to-do list (written or mental) become an idol directing your life. Instead, ask My Spirit to guide you moment by moment.

In order to know My will, you must spend time with Me— enjoying My Presence.

So much "stuff" keeps getting in the way of enjoying My Presence. You are worried and troubled about many things, but only one thing is needed. When you make Me that one thing, you choose what will never be taken away from you.

And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 4:19

TRUST ME ENOUGH to spend ample time with Me, pushing back the demands of the day. Refuse to feel guilty about something that is so pleasing to Me, the King of the universe. Because I am omnipotent, I am able to bend time and events in your favor. You will find that you can accomplish more in less time, after you have given yourself to Me in rich communion. Also, as you align yourself with My perspective, you can sort out what is important and what is not.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." —MATTHEW 6:34
