I often turn to the bible for inspiration. Within it’s many inspired pages are a multitude of nuggets that are like springs of cool water in the driest of deserts.
Other grand sources of inspiration have trickled in through unexpected sources like TV programs; books; epiphanies reached from many hours of talking to myself; inspired words of distinguished writers and speakers like A. W. Tozer, Oswald Chambers and Master Yoda; wisdom captured from moments where I experience something profound; and, excerpts of things with comedic value – they all rock my boat while tickling my fancy!
Getting ridiculously lost on the internet has also been instrumental in streaming these wordy droplets of light to me.
Some of these quotes have brought me laughter, and have been uplifting in moments I’ve need the most encouragement. Some have also challenged me to think outside the box, face my fears and dare to be different.
