Enough trials to keep you strong.
Enough sorrow to keep you human.
Enough hope to keep you happy.
Enough failure to keep you humble.
Enough success to keep you eager.

We must be careful not to gather around us Bible teachers who will tickle our ears, teaching us what we want to hear, or seeking out ‘Great speakers’.

Too often all we ever do is focus on the external problem that we can see. In front of us we have a row of dominoes. Imagine for a second that the last domino is your outward sin. The time you gossiped, swore, or pushed a kid in school. However, you will notice that there are many, many things
