God accepts us unconditionally, and in his view we are all precious and priceless. Focus on this and you will not waste any time and effort trying to be someone you're not.

You don't have to be famous to be great.

I'm not getting to heaven on my integrity. I'm not getting to heaven on my goodness.

Integrity is built by defeating the temptation to be dishonest; humility grows when we refuse to be prideful; and endurance develops every time you reject the temptation to give up.

Nothing works perfectly. The weather doesn't work perfectly. Because of sin in the world, nothing works perfectly. But in spite of that we can find comfort. We can find strength.

There is no growth without change, no change without fear or loss and no loss without pain.

It takes no courage to say or do what's popular.
