For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is. —1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Whoever has Christ in his heart, so that no earthly or temporal things -- not even those that are legitimate and allowed -- are preferred to Him, has Christ as a foundation. But if these things be preferred, then even though a man seem to have faith in Christ, yet Christ is not the foundation to that man. —Augustine

No matter how disappointed you are feeling or how much you are hurting, know that every heartache and loss has within it the seeds of opportunity. Hidden within each disappointment is a peal of great price, that, when found, will totally dwarf your problem. The greatest success stories are written by people who, against seemingly overwhelming and often insurmountable odds, have accepted their trials and turned them into opportunities for personal growth and stepping stones on their pathway to success. With God's help you can do the same. Trust him and choose friends who will empower you to do so.

Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, and in your godliness, brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither useless nor unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. —2 Peter 5-8

That which makes the men of God so great and impressive is not, first and foremost, what they have accomplished. It is rather how they are able, by God's help, to pass through the greatest difficulties and the darkest hours;when, like Abraham, they give God the dearest they have; when, like Daniel, they brave the greatest dangers; and when like Moses, they endure that which is well nigh impossible. Thus they glorify God. —G. Steinberger

...JV basketball game. The score was 48 to 47 with the Guest in the lead. The Home team had the ball under their hoop because of a foul. There was 3 seconds left in the game. The person taking the ball out threw it to a player in the back court calling for the ball. Everyone was wondering what was going on! He held the ball for the remaining 3 seconds. Everyone was yelling at him! After the buzzer, on the court, I heard him walk by and say "Oh, we are 1 point behind." Everyone was in shock. I felt really bad for him. I wanted to cry— it was SO sad. Pray for the boys— the one throwing it in was getting ribbed just as hard as the one holding the ball. As far as I'm concerned the coach should of called a time-out. Anyway, I'm just venting and asking for prayer...
