People are skeptical of many televangelists, and I'm sensitive to that.

Don't spend all your time trying to win over your critics. Just run your own race.

Quit worrying about how everything is going to turn out. Live one day at a time; better yet, make the most of this moment. It’s good to have a big – picture outlook, to set goals, to establish budgets and make plans, but if you’re always living in the future, you’re never really enjoying the present in the way God wants you to.

You can take pride in yourself without comparing yourself to anybody else. If you run your race and be the best that you can be, then you can feel good about yourself.

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.

Never let discouraging people and discouraging situations talk you out of your dream.

Don’t simply settle for what your parents had. You can go further than that. You can do more, have more, be more.
