When wealth is lost, nothing is lost

When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost. —Billy Graham

Maintain your integrity. Hang onto it like a prized possession. It's a rare commodity these days and one you don't want to ever lose. Always remember, honesty is not the best policy—it's the ONLY policy.

Prayer—the Language of Dependence on God

Lord, teach me to embrace all the circumstances You allow in my life, trusting You to bring good out of them. Help me to see them as opportunities to rely more fully on You. May my needs become doorways to deep dependence on You, increasing my intimacy with You.


Through prayer, we demonstrate our dependence on God. Take time to be still and know God today.


"Be still and know that I am God." —Psalm 46:10
