It takes deliberate and continuous effort to carve out time in our overfull schedules to listen to the voice of God.

Some people will not understand what the love of Christ compels you to do; do it anyway.

I've never walked to an altar in my life. I gave my life to Christ in my bedroom as a child.

Some view mental illness as a purely spiritual issue and deny the need for medication or other forms of treatment. Others view it as an illness with no spiritual aspect. I believe it's a combination of both.

Can't you tell when you're with someone who's listening? She hears you, really hears you. He hears the sadness in your tone or catches your joy. Be a listener, to music, to life, to others, to God. Life is noisy, but there is music in every heartbeat. God is waiting to bring joy and peace to the confusion of our days.

Theres not one good thought in me, apart from God. Thats the good news.

When I work with Women of Faith, I probably talk to anything from 15- to 20,000 women a weekend. They are dying to hear somebody tell their story out loud and not self-combust, to bring all the secrets out of the shadow into Gods light.
