Whenever there’s a lack of healthy communication, evil imaginations build. Phillip

  Today be on the lookout for someone who’s feeling crushed. Give them a good word. That’s treasures in heaven. Phillip

  Marriage isn’t 50-50, divorce is 50-50. Marriage has to be 100-100. It’s not splitting everything in half, but both partners giving everything they’ve got! Dave Willis

  Without forgiveness, our relationships will stay locked up in the past. Without forgiveness, we will have to end our current relationship when the poop gets too deep and start a new relationship. Only Jesus didn’t need to be forgiven. Phillip

  What kind of man finds grace in God’s eyes? A humble, God-fearing man. I don’t think Noah obeyed God to make himself feel better than others. This was a humble, intimate thing between him and God. Phillip

  God used dirt to make us. Then he breathed a soul into that dirt. The dirt will return to dirt. Only the spirit in me will live forever. That’s the part of me I must nurture. Phillip

  We’re always longing to get back to our lost paradise. But we never quite get there. It’s just out of reach. We feel hungry and broken all the time. Keep your longing eyes on Jesus. Phillip

  When we understand that God is chastising us, we trust him, regardless of the pain. We’re always pleased with the new person we become on the other side. Phillip

  True gentleness comes when we’ve been through hell and we understand the suffering of others. If we stay in the hell of bitterness, we will become cynical and unable to trust. It’s only those who go through hell and come out at the other side who are able to deal gently with others. Phillip

  If you give up on people, they will give up on you. TD Jakes

  Let the Holy Spirit’s fresh air clean out the stale air of shame in your soul. Phillip

  A healthy marriage must expel all shame, which is the foul, toxic gas that suffocates a healthy marriage. Shame is like a natural gas leak that will either kill you with its fumes or explode when you light a spark of anger, jealousy, or insecurity. Phillip

  Home needs to be a place where I don’t need to perform or compete. A place where I can feel safe and lay my head. TD Jakes

  Adam’s first career was to name the animals God created. This was good and satisfying. But after a long day, he had no one to come home to. Phillip

  The God who created me and loves me knows the pain and emptiness I feel when I’m isolated. Phillip

  If you don’t work on your family, you won’t have anyone to grow old with. TD Jakes

  There’s so much in the Bible, life, and myself I don’t understand. There’s so much about the way people act and treat each other and me that I don’t understand. If I want to know the mind I must “put on” to make sense from life, it’s humble. I must become a master of humbleness. Phillip

  Jesus came so we could have life, not do church. TD Jakes

  The best shot I have at changing my family is for me to become the best father, husband, brother, and son. Phillip

  Pray not to a distant God, but to the God you believe you are at one with. Phillip

  It’s more Christlike to love and then get hurt or betrayed than to hide inside my shell of fear. Phillip

  Our eternal reward will come from what we have done, and not what was done to us. Phillip

  You can be mentally right and emotionally wrong. Phillip

  God teaches us in fragments and then periodically shows us the puzzle. Phillip

  Don’t read the Bible and pray just enough to aggravate your demons. Push all the way through! Phillip
