Personally, I’m choosing to dwell upon the glory of the kingdom of which I am a part, even though I’m still a witness and sometimes a victim of the junk in ‘this’ world.

We are not perfect in ourselves, but in Him we are. In the red circle of this world, there is no hope. However, because you’re living in the purple wedge, there is always His hope, power, and joy.

Remember, as a believer, you are already in God’s kingdom, even if you are still standing on this earth.

For believers, there is much more to existence than simply passing out of one world and into another.

If, in Him all things hold together, why would anyone ever want to be apart from Him?

If you are a Christian, especially if you are unhappy or frustrated, remind yourself frequently of the purple wedge in which you live.

If there is a ‘this world, ’ there must be a ‘that world!’ There must be another world!

The best times we’ve had on earth are usually with those we love.

Evil was coming. I wondered whose face it would be wearing.

I want to use television not only to entertain, but to help people lead better lives.

I often thought that if there had been a good rap group around in those days, I might have chosen a career in music instead of politics.

How weird that must be, to stay the same as everyone else changes.

Love works in a circle, for the beloved moves the lover by stamping a likeness, and the lover then goes out to hold the beloved inreality. Who first was the beginning now becomes the end of motion.
