Some of you had big dreams, but you had some disappointments & now you think it’s over. But God is saying, Begin again.

I'm not a big believer in trying to jam stuff down somebody's throat: 'You're going to do it my way.' I'd rather show by example and live my life and have people say, 'You know what, I want to live like Joel has. He's got peace and joy, and he seems content.'

Don't be so shortsighted that if it doesn't happen right now, you're not going to be happy. You are sowing seeds that will reap a great harvest for generations to come.

It's always darkest before the dawn. The bigger your challenge, the closer you are to your victory.

When you have big dreams, you’re going to have big challenges. If you were an average person you would have average problems.

God planted a dream in your heart for a reason. No one else can dream it for you. No one else will accomplish it for you.

Don’t allow negative people to steal your joy. When you lose your joy, you lose your strength.
