MOTIVES

You’re right—I’m big on motives. They are the beginning and the end. Love is your motive.

Don’t come to me and ask me to build your church when I have already asked you to build my Kingdom. There are ranks in my Kingdom but those who hold them are not self-appointed.

The highest in rank Will be those who are servant to all. The servant does not judge. He is not critical of those he serves. If I ask you to serve the least of your brethren, don’t do it thinking you are superior. Don’t do it looking down from your position of pride.

You can’t know another’s heart. The one you despise because his sin is greater then yours may have found great favor with me because his heart is humble.

1 am calling you down to a place of greatness in my Kingdom. From that place you must love your brother as yourself.

The self-centered can never be great. The greatest man who ever lived became great only by going to the cross. There is no other way to greatness.
