We have exchanged love of family and home for cyberfriends and living in constant motion that robs the soul from memories—and perhaps from that still, small voice that longs to be heard.

Nothing can calm our souls more or better prepare us for life's challenges than time spent alone with God.

You will never understand who you are until you understand who God is.

Learn to shut out the distractions that keep you from truly worshiping God.

The eagle ... can lock its wings and wait for the right wind. He waits for the updraft and never has to flap his wings, just soar. As as we wait on God He will help us use the adversities and strong winds to benefit us. The Bible says, 'They that wait upon the Lord ... shall mount up with wings as eagles' (Isaiah 40:31)

You cannot afford to be too busy to pray.

The reason many... close their eyes while praying is to shut out the affairs of the world so that their minds can be completely concentrated on God... it certainly lends itself to the attitude of prayer.

At its deepest level, prayer is fellowship with God: enjoying His company, waiting upon His will, thanking Him for His mercies... listening in the silence for what He has to say to us.

Our natural desire is to be doing something; but there are times in our lives when it is wiser to wait and just be still.

Nothing can replace a daily time spent alone with God in prayer. We can also be in an attitude of prayer throughout the day—sitting in a car or at our desks, working in the kitchen, even talking with someone on the phone.

One can approach the Bible with a cold, rationalistic attitude, or one can do so with reverence and the desire to hear God speak.

The entire world is in turmoil. We are living in a time of enormous conflict and cultural transformation. We have been stunned by shockwaves of change in nation after nation, all around the globe.
