“God will never let you sink under your circumstances. He always provides a safety net and His love always encircles.”

No one likes change… but babies in diapers.

Life can be wonderful. Do your best not to miss it!” Enjoy what it is before it isn’t anymore. Dare to slip on a pair of bunny slippers once in a while! Surprise yourself! Enjoy the little things because one day you’ll look back and realize they were the big things!

Laughter is to life what shock absorbers are to automobiles. It won’t take the potholes out of the road, but it sure makes the ride smoother

Smile…it kills time between disasters.

Have we forgotten that we’re all born the same way: naked, wet, and hungry? Then things get worse!

Faith is seeing light with your heart when all your eyes see is darkness.

Life is too short to spend it being angry, bored, or dull.

Allow your dreams a place in your prayers and plans. God-given dreams can help you move into the future He is preparing for you.

Being codependent means that when you die, someone else’s life passes before your eyes.

If you can forgive the person you were, accept the person you are, and believe in the person you will become, you are headed for joy. So celebrate your life.

How will you use the years God gives you? Will you be remembered for being a fault-finder? Or will you be known for your quick smile, the laugh lines around your eyes, and the twinkle deep within? After all, God gives you your face, but you provide the expression!

Always remember that better days are ahead – if not in this life, in the next.

Forgiveness is a stunning principle, your ticket out of hate and fear and chaos. … I know what regret feels like; I’ve earned my credentials. But I also know what forgiveness feels like, because God has so graciously forgiven me.

The attitude of kindness is everyday stuff like a great pair of sneakers. Not frilly. Not fancy. Just plain and comfortable.

Stop what you are doing long enough to enjoy the sunset, listen to a special song that lifts you up, or pick up the phone and share some special thought with a caring friend.

Winners see an answer for every problem; losers see a problem in every answer!

Memories consume, like opening the wound, I’m picking me apart again. You all assume, I’m safe here in my room, unless I try to start again.

The one man to distrust, however, is the man who never makes a mistake, never commits a blunder, never fails in what he tries to do. He is either a phony, or he stays with the safe, the tried, and the trivial.

In ourselves our safety must be sought. By our own right hand it must be wrought.

You cannot have maternal health without reproductive health. And reproductive health includes contraception and family planning and access to legal, safe abortion.

The needs for safety, belonging, love relations and for respect can be satisfied only by other people, i.e. only from outside the person.

Life is an ongoing process of choosing between safety (out of fear and need for defense) and risk (for the sake of progress and growth). Make the growth choice a dozen times a day.

One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.

In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.
