Life is going by. Don't waste a minute being negative, offended, or bitter. Choose to be happy.

Sometimes we focus on the mess or the broken dream, but in all the mess God sees greatness. He knows how to take your troubles and turn them into trophies, how to take the test and make it your testimony.

Never put a question mark where God has put a period. When something is over and done, let it go and move on to the next chapter of your life.

Don't focus on the good old days, look forward towards the good new days.

You may have failed, but you are not a failure. That's what you did. That's not who you are.

I like to take every day just searching my own heart, making sure that I'm on course, and I'm doing what God wants me to do. I'm real good with not looking to the critics and looking straight ahead.

We can all control our own destiny. And I think sometimes it's a copout to say, "Well, it's this person's fault or another person's fault."
