“We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.”

The more impossible the situation, the greater God accomplishes His work.

If we choose to be offended when we don’t get our own way, Then we’re going to live constantly on the edge of anger. But if we say to ourselves, ” A merry heart does good like a medicine,” It’ll make all the difference in the world.

Oh, how horrible our sins look when they are committed by someone else.

We must cease striving and trust God to provide what He thinks is best and in whatever time He chooses to make it available. But this kind of trusting doesn’t come naturally. It’s a spiritual crisis of the will in which we must choose to exercise faith.

If God’s people are to be living examples of one thing, that thing ought to be – it must be – compassion.

The Lord delights to surprise us with His goodness, if only we will unlock the door of obedience with the key of faith – which He has given – and then push it open and walk through.

Make a plan now to keep a daily appointment with God. The enemy is going to tell you to set it aside, but you must carve out the time. If you’re too busy to meet with the Lord, friend, then you are simply too busy

A man is as unhappy as he has convinced himself he is.

You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of failure.

We must learn to help those who deserve it, not just those who need it. Life responds to deserve not need.

People are terrified of me, and I want them to be.

I just really wanted to be myself. I wanted to be sassy, the attitude, all these things that I am.

Sometimes you’ve got to kick your heels off and sit down a minute, so you can be ready for your next step!
