“Don’t be led astray. The best investment you can ever make is self-investment, and it pays the highest rewards. Invest now or regret later; it’s that simple.”

“She would look us in the eyes and say, “Whenever you’re tempted, you’ve got to shout.” She then would scream the words so loud that we needed to cover our ears, “Get thee behind me, Satan.” Then she’d talk in a normal voice again and say, “The devil is ruling your lives. You need to learn how to say no. Stop throwing your pearls to the swine. Your lives have value, but you’re throwing it away.” Her voice would get desperate again and she'd say, “You must not give yourself over to these things. They’re damaging you. They’ll destroy you. You must learn to stop.” Then she would turn to my friends and plead with them, “Please don’t lead my boy astray. He’s trying now, he’s trying to be better. Please don’t drag him down again.”

“[2 Corinthians 1:21-22] says that God has anointed us, has sealed us, and has given us the pledge, the foretaste, of the Spirit. If we are going to minister something of Christ to others, we have to experience Christ by the working of the cross, and the working of the cross is for the anointing, the sealing, and the pledge of the Spirit.”

“Imagine you were asked in a maths paper at junior school, 'Which would you prefer, a shilling or two sixpences?' and you answered, 'Two sixpences,' because thinking of the two tiny silver coins jingling together in your pocket made you feel good and you loved those cute little sixpences. But when the test paper was returned you saw a big red cross through your answer, and that night your mother explained to you that it was a trick question, two sixpences and a shilling were worth the same amount – which you knew, but you'd still prefer two sixpences. It wasn't that you were stupid, you just saw things from a different angle. Sixpences had character, shillings didn't. And you felt richer with two sixpences because there were two coins, not just one. But despite all these explanations, you were still wrong and you kept getting tripped up by these trick questions over and over again, in exams, in relationships, friendships, jobs and interviews. In fact, these misreadings of situations happened so often that you started to view the world as a tricksy and untruthful place. Then you noticed that the people who saw the tricks behind the questions were popular and always at the top of the class. Baffled by life and its unseen rules, you began to doubt everything around you. You felt you had to approach all of life as a trick, just to get it right a few times.”
