(On being in a position of leadership) Even if it's your dog, you've got authority over somebody. Start treating him better.

Encourage everyone you meet with a smile or compliment. Make them feel better when you leave their presence and they will always be glad to see you coming.

The simple power of prayer can save us all kinds of time and trouble if we will ask God to give us wisdom and discernment in our relationships.

Our world has created a false unrealistic image of what women are supposed to look like and act like. But the truth is that every woman was not created by God to be skinny, with a flawless complexion and long flowing hair. Not every woman was intended to juggle a career as well as all of the other duties of being a wife, mother, citizen, and daughter. Single women should not be made to feel they are missing somenthing because they are not married. Married women should not be made to feel they must have a career to be complete. We must have the freedom to be our individual selves.

I think that one of the things that Christianity really needs, and the church really needs, is credibility. People need to be able to trust us and they need to believe we really want to help them and that it's not just, I'm-doing-this-for-me type thing.

We must meditate on what God has done in our life instead of what we are still waiting on Him to do.

Humility is the most beautiful virtue that we can develop.
