How about: “Hurry up and slow Down”
I love that quote. Who could have said that?
I got it from you! 🙂 not sure if you made it up but I say it to my girls and myself a few time a week! I appreciate the wisdom that you share!
I am hardly, if EVER quoted, so knowing you do that makes my day…especially because it makes your day. 🙂
“You’re one decision away from a totally different life” – Mark Batterson. The key is to make that one decision daily.
Great #22 quote. Thank you, Adena. I may have enough soon for a second post on “21 More One Liners”
I like #4. Your daily behavior reveals your deepest beliefs. This one keeps me honest with myself and others. My #22 is “Struggling does not mean quitting”. Not quitting keeps hope alive.
Thank you for your #22. Its a good one!
# 22 Let go and let God…. (I got this from one of your sermons Pastor Bob ). I have to remind myself often of it. I have no control of anything that I sometimes think I do…. So I use #5 a lot too.
I like your #22! I think it goes hand in hand with #5. I would add to #5 – “Leave it with God.”
Your inability to see my worth, does no affect my value.
I love #3 Victims make excuses. Leaders deliver results. and #16 The only failure is not trying. Thank you for this awesome blog Pastor Bob. I am going to print this page out. (Definitely great daily reminders) Have a wonderful week! 🙂
