“The Song explains spiritual things for spiritual people (1 Cor. 2:13). And it is enfleshed in man and woman, with all of nature joining in. Then all the other matters fall into place. In Jesus Christ, heaven and earth come together—he leaves his “mother’s house,” the heavenly realm, to cling to his bride and usher her into his inner chambers (Gen. 2:24).”

“Here is the key to getting free from the stranglehold of past failures and mistakes: learn the lesson and forget the details. Gain from the experience, but do not roll the minute details of it over and over in your mind. Build on the experience, and move forward in your life.”

“Every obstacle has a limited life span. We worried about things last year that we can’t even remember today.”

“Thinking on the offensive and taking the initiative are the master keys that open doors of opportunity in your life. Create a habit of taking the initiative and never start your day in neutral. Every morning when your feet hit the floor, think on the offensive, move forward, and take control of your day and of your life. Pulling back and thinking defensively usually enhances a problem. Intimidation always precedes defeat. If you aren’t sure which way to go, pray and move toward the situation in faith. Be like the two fishermen trapped in a storm in the middle of a lake. One turned to the other and asked, “Should we pray or should we row?” His wise companion responded, “Let’s do both!” That’s taking the offensive!”
