We'll keep you encouraged and inspired.

I'd like to start with something funny, and I heard about this teenager.

He'd just gotten his driver's license.

He asked his father about borrowing the car.

His father said, son, I'll make a deal with you.

If you'll bring your grades up, read your Bible every day, and cut your hair, I'll let you borrow it.

He came back a few weeks later, ask about it again. Father said, son, you brought your grades up.

You've been reading your Bible, but you still haven't cut your hair. The son said, Dad, I've been thinking Moses had long hair, Samson had long hair, even

Jesus had long hair.

The father said, yes, son, and they walked everywhere they went.

Say it like you mean it.

This is my Bible.

I am what it says I am.

I have what it says I have. I have what it says I have.

I can do what it says I can do.
