I forbid you, agnostic, doubting thoughts, to destroy the house of my faith.

How you speak and the words you use tell much about the image you choose to portray. Use language to build and uplift those around you. Profane, vulgar, or crude language and inappropriate or off-color jokes are offensive to the Lord. Never misuse the name of God or Jesus Christ. The Lord said, "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain" (Ex. 20:7).

My earnest prayer is that you will have the courage required to refrain from judging others, the courage to be chaste and virtuous, and the courage to stand firm for truth and righteousness. As you do so, you will be ‘an example of the believers’ (1 Timothy 4:12), and your life will be filled with love and peace and joy.

We must not let our passions destroy our dreams.

The past is behind, learn from it. The future is ahead, prepare for it. The present is here, live it.

Be of good cheer. The future is as bright as your faith.

Cooperativeness is not so much learning how to get along with others as taking the kinks out of ourselves, so that others can get along with us.
