“Be patient with yourself. Be gentle with yourself. Know that all things are working in your favor. If you take one step toward the light of Spirit, Spirit will take five steps on your behalf.”

Everybody does not have to like you. That is not their job. Liking you is not anyone’s purpose in life except yours.

Nothing destroys self-worth, self-acceptance and self-love faster than denying what you feel. Without feelings, you would not know where you are in life. Nor would you know what areas you need to work on. Honor your feelings. Allow yourself to feel them.

Every day is your day if you claim it. If you wait for somebody else to make it for you, you’re going to be disappointed.

Criticism does not make you smarter or better than the one you are criticizing. In fact, the stuff you are critical of in others is the same stuff you don’t like about yourself.

If someone has offended you, insulted you, or disappointed you, let it go! If you are remembering all the ways you have been hurt or forgotten, let it go! Ask yourself, what good does it do for me to hold on to this?

When you make a decision and a commitment to do something good for yourself, it is like dropping a pebble in a pond. It has a rippling effect. The firmer the decision, the stronger the frequency and wider the range of things that will be reached.

When you can tell the story and it doesn’t bring up any pain, you know it is healed.

It is not your duty or responsibility to change the minds of other people. The nature of their thinking is advanced or limited by their experience. In your presence, they have an opportunity to learn about you and, perhaps, to grow.

Just for today, allow yourself to embrace all that you are every moment. Know that you are a vessel of light. Allow yourself to release all doubts about your ability, the mistakes of the past, the fear of the future.

Family is supposed to be our safe haven. Very often, it’s the place where we find the deepest heartache.

Acceptance means that you know, regardless of what happened, that there is something bigger than you at work. It also means you know that you are okay and that you will continue to be okay.

When you’re the strong one, people don’t give you permission to hurt.

You have to meet people where they are, and sometimes you have to leave them there.

If you are afraid to take a chance, take one anyway. What you don’t do can create the same regrets as the mistakes you make.

If you should encounter angry or unkind actions today, take a deep breath, reach deep within and greet the lack of love with love.

Life will let you get away with something for a while, but sooner or later, you will pay the price. Everything you do in life causes the effects that you experience. When you get the bill, be prepared to pay.

My love, I challenge you to liberate your destiny and free your dreams from your limiting belief.

There is little sense in attempting to change external conditions, you must first change inner beliefs, then outer conditions will change accordingly.

Should a conflict arise between the witness of the Holy Spirit to the fundamental truth of the Christian faith and beliefs based on argument and evidence, then it is the former which must take precedence over the latter.

The simple fact that the Christian fellowship, founded on belief in Jesus’ resurrection, came into existence and flourished in the very city where he was executed and buried is powerful evidence for the historicity of the empty tomb.

You thought it wouldn’t live again. But it will live again.

There is no safety for honest men, but by believing all possible evil of evil men, and by acting with promptitude, decision, and steadiness on that belief.

Life is very, very simple and easy to understand, but we complicate it with the beliefs and ideas that we create.

We only see what we want to see; we only hear what we want to hear. Our belief system is just like a mirror that only shows us what we believe.
