My daddy tried to get me up to speak for the 17 years that I worked behind the scenes, but I never had the desire. Naturally, I was nervous and kind of shy. I just didn't want to do it.

Your time is too valuable, your destiny is too great, and your future is too bright to waste a single moment. Be a now person.

Life is not too short... we just wait too long to begin it.

Keep in mind, hurting people often hurt other people as a result of their own pain. If somebody is rude and inconsiderate, you can almost be certain that they have some unresolved issues inside. They have some major problems, anger, resentment, or some heartache they are trying to cope with or overcome.

I'm trying to make God more relevant in our society. And I think talking in everyday terms and making sure people can understand it - I think that's important.

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.

I don't have all the answers.
