What we're all striving for is authenticity, a spirit-to-spirit connection.

I wasn't remembering the gift that God had given me. I had totally put all that aside. And my daughter was growing up before my eyes, and I just wanted to grab hold of that. It goes by so fast. I wanted to watch her. I wanted to be that parent - because at that point in time, I was a single parent. Watch her go to school, and when she got home, be there. I wanted that moment.

The stories that you tell yourself can make or break you - no matter who you are.

Your calling isn’t something that somebody can tell you about. It’s what you feel. It is the thing that gives you juice. The thing that you are supposed to do. And nobody can tell you what that is. You know it inside yourself.

Making a Different Choice Gives You the Opportunity to Live a Different Life.

I look at problems as opportunities and use every person, every incident, and every encounter as an opportunity to show a more loving part of myself.

For me to live in a world that is not inclusive of other people who are not Christian would be the opposite of Christianity.
