I found these quotes on one of my friends myspace and i thought they were good..
"It’s relatively easy to act like a Christian. To pepper your speech with Christian jargon, to pray articulate prayers, to lift your hands at just the right moment in a song, to generally act “spiri”. But to keep your heart and life consistently devoted to Jesus is an entirely different matter. It’s hard. It’s not cool to be religious, but it’s cool to be ‘spiritual’, right? But ‘spiritual’ things like lifting your hands or praying profound prayers are actually ‘religious’ and empty if it’s only our lips that are moving and not our hearts...God sees right through us when we come to Him with pretty songs or bowed heads or complicated prayers that aren’t true to where we are really at. He would much prefer us to come to Him honestly and tell Him what we’re feeling, whether it’s gratitude and happiness or disappointment and apathy. We will mess up again and again, because God hasn’t finished with us yet...If we make loving Jesus our priority, then following Jesus will be a practical outworking of that love." - Brooke Fraser
"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centred; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and GOD. It was never between you and them anyway." - Mother Theresa
Girls are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The boys don’t want to reach for the good ones because they’re afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they get the rotten apples from the ground that aren’t as good, but easy. So the apples up top think that something is wrong with them when in reality, they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right boy to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.
