I especially like the “Don’t Just…” I had not read that one before. It is so pertinent to today’s world. The one I like the most is: “Don’t just change, transform.” Change is inevitable… it’s a constant. But transformation … that’s another idea all together, and it takes a lot of divine intervention and purposefulness, don’t you think?

I absolutely agree! Change happens every day, but to have a transformation from change, now that’s change in ACTION!!
