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

Make sure you are doing what is important to God-not just what is important to everyone else you know.

Just deciding to forgive isn't enough because willpower alone won't work - we need divine strength from God. As He gives us the strength, we need to pray for our enemies and bless them. Praying for those who have hurt us is vital to successfully forgiving them.

We cannot control what others do to us, but through God we can control the way we respond to them.

Life is not fair; God is.

You can suffer the pain of change or suffer remaining the way you are.

When we are truly confident and secure, the opinions of others cannot control us.
