Strive to find things to be thankful for and just look for the good in who you are!

The paramedic whispered in my ear 'God will never leave you or forsake you.'

I just love being on the ocean and being creative on the waves and the feeling you get when you're surfing. All around it's beautiful and fun.

I wouldn't change what happened to me because then I wouldn't have this chance, in front of all of you, to embrace more people than I ever could have with two arms.

Being out there in the ocean, God's creation, it's like a gift He has given us to enjoy.

It's easy to look at the things of this world to solve our challenges and obstacles in life, but when we submit our lives to Christ, His grace, mercy, peace and love will bring true fulfillment to our lives.

Your looks do not define who you are.
