You can have average talent, but when God breathes on your life, you will go further than people that have great talent. Don't talk yourself out of it.

God knows the dreams and desires in your heart; in fact, He gave them to you. He will order your steps and take you where you need to be.

If we don't forgive ourselves for mistakes we've made-and everybody's made their choices, some worse than others-we'll never experience the good life God has in store.

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.

For a while... to be an evangelical meant you were a white Republican, and you were against this and against that. I don't want to be put into that mold, because then people judge you before they even listen... I don't want to divide the very people I am trying to reach.

God doesn’t care what you’re not. He cares who you are. You are His, you come from the Master, and when He adds His extra to your ordinary and His super to your natural, nothing is impossible for you.

I try to look on all the great things God's done, and not focus on the negative. It's a perspective.
