Stop telling God how big your problems are.
Instead, start telling your problems how big your God is. - Bo Sanchez
Extracts from the book God is Bigger than Your Biggest Problems by Bo Sanchez
-When you're in pain, God embraces you and feels your pain. He weeps with you.
Because Daddy is Emmanuel. -p25
-You don't have to please God so that He will love you. He loves you as you are. He accepts you totally.
Because Daddy is Grace. (Grace means "free gift".) - p28
-Dulce means "sweet". I believe God is the sweetest Daddy in the world. We can run to Him, climb on His lap,
and ask for what we need. Because Daddy is Dulce. -32
-In this adventure called life, I've experience my God pushing me, pulling me, and carrying me in His arms.
I know God does the same to you. - p34
-God has faith in you. He believes in you. Because Daddy is Fides. (Fides means faith, the root word for faithfulness.)
-Leadership is about relationships. p42
-A leader builds relationship with a disciple. A leader plant a dream in that person's heart. A leader empowers that person to reach for that dream.
-God wants to build a relationship with you. He'll spend time with you.
He'll win your trust. He'll expose His own heart to you. He'll pour His life into you. In other words, He'll love you. This is His brand of leadership. p46
-God has cast a vision for your life: to give you a life of abundance.
He's so commited, He's not only ready to die for it -- He already did. He gave His life on the cross to make that vision come true. p51
-God won't allow any problem, any crisis, any trial, any evil in your life to stop His great vision from happening in your life. p52

-I go to God's Supply Room for everything I need. Because I have the key to that room: trust. p56
