Love trumps hate. Courage loves fear. Right always trumps wrong.

God loves you just the way you are. But He loves you too much to leave you stuck in a state of defeat

If she could give love to IT perhaps it would shrivel up and die, for she was sure that IT could not withstand love.

We are dominated on this planet by a fear-based rather than a love-based thought system.

There are people today who look to fear to take us out of fear. But I believe that there are many, many more people who would look to love.

It's easy to feel powerless in the face of a problem as big as climate change. But you're not powerless.

It's heartbreaking to see how some people go through their entire lives held captive by debilitating fears. When you peel back all the layers of self-protection that cover up these destructive fears, you'll often find one or two significant events at the core. These events may not even seem all that terrifying to the casual observer, but they were just scary enough to start tripping the dominoes, causing the person to erect walls of avoidance.

God's preferred state for humankind is that we live free from fear, experiencing shalom, or peace. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture is packed with references that emphasize God's desire for a fear-free, peace-filled world.

If a goal is really important to me, I discipline myself in order to achieve it.

Cowards don't last long on their spiritual pilgrimages before they shrivel up and disappear. It takes enormous courage to repent and become a Christian, and then another strong dose of courage to follow God's leadings throughout your life.

Life...as God intended it enables us to live above the drag of fear, superstition, shame, pessimism, guilt, anxiety, worry, and all the negativity that keeps people from seizing each day as a gift from Him.

Boldness in the course of a noble fight is worth the risk...If you stand on truth, you'll only regret your timidity later, but you'll never regret being bold.
