If you want to be free, just start doing what God wants you to do, one step at a time, and you'll eventually walk out of your messes.

God is not there just for emergencies.

Set your mind that no matter what is going on in your life, you will have a good attitude.

When you forgive, you're not doing God a favor, you are giving yourself the gift of freedom.

God will help you be all you can be, but he will never let you be successful at becoming someone else.

Jesus said when the woman poured the alabaster bottle of perfume on him that was worth almost a year's wages, and Judas, who was very money-minded, said you shouldn't have done that, because you're wasting that, we could have sold that and given it to the poor. And Jesus himself said, you will always have the poor with you, but she has done this as an honor to me, and she will be honored for it all of her days. And so you never run out of poor people. You could give everything you had, I could give everything I had, and the world would still be full of poor people.

If you're not at peace with yourself, you can't be at peace with anyone else.
