You know, there is always times where you feel discouraged and things coming against you, but I don't know if I ever wanted to throw in the towel.

You may not be where you want to be, but you can look back and be thankful you're not where you used to be.

Life is too short to live that way. Learn to travel light. Every morning when you first get up, forgive the people that did you wrong the day before. Forgive your spouse for what they said. At the start of the day, let go of the disappointments, the set backs from yesterday. Start every morning fresh and new. God did not create you to carry around all that baggage. Let it go and move forward in the life of blessing He has in store for you!

I'm not. I don't – I don't dislike anybody. Gays are some of the nicest, kindest, most loving people in the world. But my faith is based on what I believe the scripture says, and that's the way I read the Scripture.

People respond when you tell them there is a great future in front of you, you can leave your past behind.

When the negative thoughts come - and they will; they come to all of us - it's not enough to just not dwell on it... You've got to replace it with a positive thought.

It's not who you are, but whose you are that counts. Because God is your heavenly Father, doors of opportunity will open for you.
