When you believe, or are led to believe, you are unable to act upon the greatest desires of the soul, the result is mental and spiritual enslavement.

Have the courage to be exactly who you are without apology. Admit your mistakes without beating yourself up. Release all shame! Release all guilt! You cannot live if you are hiding behind what was. Focus on what is, right now, and that is you!

You can accept or reject the way you are treated by other people. But until you heal the wounds of your past, you are going to bleed.

We voluntary participate in things that we know are causing us harm because we believe we're powerless to do anything about it.

It’s self-full to be first, to be as good as possible to you. To take care of you, keep you whole and healthy. That doesn’t mean you disregard everything and everyone. But you want to come with your cup full. You know: ‘My cup runneth over.’ What comes out of the cup is for y’all. What’s in the cup is mine. But I’ve got to keep my cup full.

The beloved is one who nurtures you, trusts you, supports you, encourages you, loves you without conditions. That's you.

Everything God does is purposeful. And since God is in each of us, each of us has a purpose.
