Don’t waste another day of your life grieving over something that you cannot do anything about. Let God give you a new beginning. Your mistakes are not enough to stop God if you don’t let them.

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

When we are overly concerned with what people think we will be controlled by the thoughts and opinions of other people.

I think a lot of people believe that they have to be poor to serve God, that they can't have anything. They don't really even know how to give. And one of the main principles in the Bible is you'll reap what you sew, and that if you give into the lives of others, that it shall be given back to you, good measure, pressed down and shaken together. If you go plant one tomato seed, you don't get back one tomato; you get a vine of tomatoes.

Courage is fear that has said its prayers and decided to go forward anyway.

Without joy in your life you are powerless.

Don't depend on other people as the source of your happiness or for approval.
