WANTED: COURAGEOUS PEOPLE

Courage instills confidence in a person... A person without courage cannot be an encourager. This is one of the reasons so many people today are so discouraged; few courageous people exist to encourage them.

ENJOYING THE ROSES

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon -- instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.

GIVING GOD CREDIT

My life isn't good because I'm a football player; I'm a football player because my life is good. Jesus Christ has made my life good. His grace and His forgiveness have changed me…

There's no way I would have gotten to the NFL without becoming a Christian. I was on the road to destruction. A lot of people want to hear how hard I've worked. That's part of it. But without God's provisions, the road I've traveled doesn't happen. I laugh at people wanting to give me credit.

-- Jon Kitna, NFL Quarterback, from Sports Spectrum

TRUTH WILL PREVAIL

Truth never yet fell dead in the streets. It has such an affinity for the soul of man, the seed however broadcast will catch somewhere and produce its hundredfold.
