We receive from God, then we give to others.

As long as you pretend to be self-sufficient, you short-circuit God's power in your life. You need to admit your inadequacy and say, "God, I can't handle this!"

We're going to serve in eternity. We're not going to sit around on clouds; you know this whole idea of heaven is wearing white robes with angels and play a harp. To me, that would be hell. I can't think of anything more boring.

If you talked to others the way you talk to yourself, would you have any friends?

There's nothing in your life you can't learn from, if you respond with the right attitude.

What happens outwardly in your life is not as important as what happens inside you. Your circumstances are temporary, but your character will last forever.

Experience is not what happens to you. It is what you do with what happens to you. Don’t waste your pain; use it to help others.
