A few thoughts from Seneca

• For change to take place, we must be honest.

• God planted Jesus in the earth so we could clearly see the fruit He is desiring.

• We don't want to despise what God tells us about ourselves.  Believe it!

• Being cut back brings us closer to Jesus, makes us aware of our great need of Him and produces greater fruitfulness.

• If we ask God to do things to and for us so we could glorify Him, He will never refuse us.

• God has invested too much in us to quit now.

• It's alright to look in the rearview mirror, but don't keep your eye there.

• Little things unaddressed could consume us.

• Truth will withstand any test.

• It's a secure feeling to know that God is choosing for us.

• We could be in the kingdom and not really have the spirit of the kingdom.

• We want love to be the motive for our obedience.

• If we get to know the Lord as we should, we will wait for Him (in prayer).  If we value His answer, we will wait.

• It's easier to keep out of trouble than to get out of trouble.

• Carry this thought: "I am representing the eternal God."

• We're not promised tomorrow, so we want to be doers today.

• When we bring joy to God, we can enter into that joy.

• Lingering at the door is not a happy place to be.

• The household of God is full of people who care about our soul.

• We can support each other in the conflict even when our individual struggles are different.

• Most problems (in the kingdom) don't exit because of evil but because of misunderstanding.

• Resentment is like drinking poison and hoping the other person will die.

• If we didn't number our days, we might not apply our heart to wisdom.
