Every hardship you endure and every failure you withstand could very well be the stepping stone to success and the realization of your God-given dream.

Believe and trust because God is faithful! I'll leave you with this: a dream deferred is not a dream denied. For God can bless you with a dream bigger than the one you ever had for yourself. He did it for me, and He can do it for you!

For whatever reason, that dream I had of going to Hollywood never went away. But when I got to LA at just 19 years of age, my faith was the foundation that gave me the confidence that I needed to believe that it would all work out and was a reason for the open and closed doors. Today, my faith is the center of my career.

It seems that once you achieve something large, the target on your back grows. But I always want to look at life as the glass is half full versus half empty. My father taught me this at an early age - that God is faithful (Romans 8:28), and that in the midst of hardship or attack, God has your back.

God is faithful. Trust Him and you'll be amazed to see what He will do.

Every hardship you endure and every failure you withstand could very well be the stepping stone to success and the realization of your God-given dream.
