When I meet somebody I want to leave a better impression than when I got there.

I don't have to live the roller coaster other people live with my life. It's hard because people try to have an effect.

I just try to work hard and run the offense as good as possible. I had a lot of guys around me who made a lot of good plays to help me out.

People often seem to think that when you're following the Lord and trying to do His will, your path will always be clear, the decisions smooth and easy, and life will be lived happily ever after and all that. Sometimes that may be true, but I've found that more often, it's not. The muddled decisions still seem muddled, bad things still happen to believers, and great things can happen to nonbelievers. When it comes to making our decisions, the key that God is concerned with is that we are trusting and seeking Him. God's desire is for us to align our lives with His Word and His will.

I'm blessed, because of my faith, that I don't have to worry about the future because I know who holds my future.

During tough times I can always go back to it and find encouragement. The Bible tells us what God says about us. In it, we read about how much he loves us and that he's got a plan and a purpose for our lives.

It's not always the easiest thing to be the center of so much spilled ink.
