“You don’t have to submit to every man but you do have to submit to YOUR man. Principal word being YOUR man. You picked him, you married him, you submit to him. You see why it is necessary for the Holy Spirit to guide us? So that we do not make a shipwreck of our lives because of our choices. Because we see and make decisions based on the tangible but the intangibles created the tangible and determine the usefulness, value, worth and joy of the tangible.”

“Humble yourself.
Don't take yourself too seriously.
Be deliberate about laughing...daily.
Reward your labors, not your laziness.
Be serious. Be silly.
Be stern. Be sweet.
Treasure-hunt for the daily miracle...like free air.
Be like John the beloved, rather than Saul the fanatic.
Listen to people who have a mix of genius and compassion.
In low moments, sit on the floor, make faces at your problems and hug God.”
