We have messed-up lives, but we’re good people and we have grace. And even though we don’t have to do good for God to love us, I want to do good for Him.

You see what kills your body but you don't see what kills your soul.

Well, first of all if it wasn't for being saved by Jesus, I would not be alive. I would be dead. Some people say Jesus saved their soul... Well, maybe Jesus saved my soul spiritually, but He also saved my life physically. Every aspect of my life today has to do with the fact that Jesus saved my life.

I should have died when I was sixteen, when I planned to commit suicide. And I was an atheist until then. I was an atheist, and what the heck, if life sucks what do you have to live for? If you're an atheist, it's just about living, you know? So at the time, I didn't want to wake up anymore and then seriously, God chased me down and proved that he was real and that he loved me.

There are so many stupid things that steal that purpose from us. The stupid things that you believe a lie that we ‘re not as important as we really are. That our life isn’t as important as it really is. It’s important to the people that you love, it’s important to the people that you will love in the future, it’s important to the world around you and it’s so important that you fulfill the purpose that only you can fulfill the way that you can fulfill that.

If you felt like somebody made you feel worthless, that is a lie. You are valuable, you deserve to be treated as a valuable precious treasure.

You are not a burden, an accident, or a mistake. You are meant for amazing things that you can't even imagine for yourself.
