What's important is...
not what kind of car you drive,
but rather how many people you give a lift.
What's important is...
not the size of your house,
but rather the number of people you welcome into your home.
What's important is...
not your social status,
but whether you live your life with class.
What's important is...
not what you possess,
but rather what you give.
What's important is...
not how many friends you have,
but rather how many to whom you are a friend.
What's important is...
not how much overtime you worked,
but rather if you work overtime for your family and loved ones.
What's important is...
not if you live in a great neighborhood,
but rather how you treat your neighbor.
"People don't drift toward holiness, they drift toward compromise and call it tolerance, and drift toward disobedience and call it freedom."

A man walked into a gift shop that sold religious items.
Near the cash register he saw a display of caps with "WWJD" printed on all of them. He was puzzled over what the letters could mean, but couldn't figure it out, so he asked the clerk.
The clerk replied that the letters stood for "What Would Jesus Do", and was meant to inspire people to not make rash decisions, but rather to imagine what Jesus would do in the same situation.
The man thought a moment and then replied, "Well, I'm sure Jesus wouldn't pay $17.95 for one of these caps."
"Every ransomed man owes his salvation to the fact that during the days of his sinning God kept the door of mercy open by refusing to accept any of his evil acts as final."
