Without fail, the days that I start off the right way with a little devotional time and putting God first. Those days are really good days.

We've got to remember the Book says the devil "walketh about the earth to and fro seeking who he may devour", and he nearly got me and he had me for a while. It didn't mean that I was no longer a Christian or that God had disowned me.

Country music will never be the same.

God, if You don't help me, I'm going to die.

In France it was Joan of Arc; in the Crimea it was Florence Nightingale; in the deep south there was Rosa Parks; in India there was Mother Teresa and in Florida there was Katherine Harris.

I'm going to try to take a loving look at the situation and do what God gave me the ability to do, and He'll bless it.

Thank God I have the things that my mother and father taught me, the things that I've learned from pastors and spiritual teachers and the books that I read.
