Jesus didn't go around condemning people. The Bible says it's the goodness of God that leads people to repentance.

I believe God gives you the grace to do what you need to do.

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."

I think, for years, people have been pushed down by religion, and I don't say that disrespectfully, but they've been shown a God that you can't measure up to.

You only have so much emotional energy each day. Don't fight battles that don't matter.

Your destiny is not cancelled because of a mistake, because of a failure. Get back up and go again.

Don't ever criticize yourself. Don't go around all day long thinking, 'I'm unattractive, I'm slow, I'm not as smart as my brother.' God wasn't having a bad day when he made you... If you don't love yourself in the right way, you can't love your neighbour. You can't be as good as you are supposed to be.
