“Read the Bible. Work hard and honestly. And don’t complain.”

My hope does not rest in the affairs of this world. It rests in Christ who is coming again.

If you find a perfect church don’t join it: You’d spoil it.

To get nations back on their feet, we must first get down on our knees.

If God can be fully proved by the human mind, then He is no greater than the mind that proves Him.

No matter how dark and hopeless a situation might seem, never stop praying.

We can change the course of events if we go to our knees in believing prayer.

There comes a moment when we all must realize that life is short, and in the end the only thing that really counts is not how others see us, but how God sees us.

You cannot build a superstructure on a cracked foundation.

Be assured that there is no sin you have ever committed that the blood of Jesus Christ cannot cleanse.

The moment we take our last breath on earth, we take our first in heaven.

Each generation faces different issues and challenges, but our standard must always be measured by God’s Word.

I don’t want to see religious bigotry in any form. It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it.

Live each day as if it were your last for some day it will be.

The greatest need in the world is the transformation of human nature. We need a new heart that will not have lust and greed and hate in it. We need a heart filled with love and peace and joy, and that is why Jesus came into the world.

There are a lot of things I wish I would have done, instead of just sitting around and complaining about having a boring life.

What you’re supposed to do when you don’t like a thing is change it. If you can’t change it, change the way you think about it. Don’t complain.

To suffer without complaint is the only lesson we have to learn in this life.

I’ve wanted one thing for me whole life and I’m not going to be that girl who wants one thing her whole life then gets it and complains.

What we need to do is always lean into the future; when the world changes around you and when it changes against you – what used to be a tail wind is now a head wind – you have to lean into that and figure out what to do because complaining isn’t a strategy.

Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time, who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done, if we are always doing.

I think globalization is a great thing. And now a lot of people complain about globalization; a lot of people don’t like, you know, the globalize of the concept, the idea of the results. I think the globalization is a great idea and to create a lot of jobs.
