We almost always see only what's wrong with other people and not what's wrong with us.

The first step to forgiveness is the desire to do it, no matter how you feel toward the person who hurt you. Then you make the decision to do it which means it's a firm decision that won't change when your feelings change. The next step is to depend on the Holy Spirit to help you do what you've decided to do.

Let's face it: None of us are ever going to get to the place in life where we have no more disappointments. We can't expect to be sheltered from every little thing. Disappointment is a fact of life--one that must be dealt with.

I don't just pray for God to open doors, I also pray for God to close doors.

A person who refuses to give up will always succeed eventually.

Even if you think the grass is greener on the other side, you’re going to have to mow that side too.

Your value should not be determined by how somebody else has treated you.
