You cannot limit the power of your modesty to just what you wear. It is also controlled or forfeited by where you are willing to go with guys, why you go there, and how you act.

God calls me to write the truth of my life transparently so that others can learn from my hurt and heartache without taking the field trip themselves.

Through all this other stuff I was doing, I always went back to the writing, and it was writing that made me feel whole, complete.

You were created as a masterpiece and you are one of God's expressions of beauty. Short, tall, thin, thick, freckles, big eyes, small ones . . . it doesn't matter.

Over the years, my books have been given a lot more credence than they should. I don't think people should take them quite that seriously. They're not a theological treatise; they were never intended to be. I find myself in awkward situations sometimes because people think I'm some great authority on spiritual warfare, but I'm not. I never have been.

A girl should get so lost in God, that a guy has to seek God to find her!
