In all circumstances and at all times maintain your joy and be thankful

Our self-interest makes us seek what is good for ourselves but God calls us to pursue what is good for each other and everyone else

An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth would leave us all blind and toothless if we insist on paying back wrong for wrong, and evil for evil

It is easy to criticize, judge and condemn people when we are only focused on our point of view. Be patient with everyone because each person has a story beyond what is known to you

It may not take much from you to offer encouragement to the disheartened and to give help to the weak, but it may be the very life saving intervention someone needs today

People who are unruly and those that are idle induce disruptions to purpose and progress. God’s solution is to warn such people

Honor those who give themselves over to God as His servants and to God’s people in service to God

The Gospel of the kingdom of God advances through the hard work of God’s faithful people

God uses people to counsel, correct, develop, deploy, edify, and exhort us in our faith journey.

God has given us people who show care for us in ordinary ways and sometimes extraordinary ways. We must neither forget nor be ungrateful to God and to such people
