“When I awaken in the morning, I am thankful for a new day. I am thankful for everything that I have materially.”

Service is a balm to both the spirit and the body.

God is not about religion. Religion is a structure that should house our faith in God. Too often it is used to hurt other people in God’s name.

If love is truly a verb, if help is a verb, if forgiveness is a verb, if kindness is a verb, then you can do something about it.

To become as perfect as a mortal being can become, we need to bring the mind, body, and spirit into total harmony…We must add to that harmony Christ like love and righteousness.

We are responsible for one another. Collectively so. The world is a joint effort. We might say it is like a giant puzzle, and each one of us is a very important and unique part of it.

God’s love is just like the sun, constant and shining for us all. And just as the earth rotates around the sun, it is the natural order for us to move away for a season, and then to return closer, but always within the appropriate time.

In our thoughts and words we create our own weaknesses and our own strengths.

All religions upon the earth are necessary because there are people who need what they teach. … Each church fulfills spiritual needs that perhaps others cannot fill. No one church can fulfill everybody’s needs at every level.

I may not understand why I have the illness, but I sense that it is there for a purpose, and so I thank God for it. I ask Him to allow me to expand beyond my narrow-mindedness and self-centeredness so that I can see the good that comes from everything.

Above all, I was shown that love is supreme. I saw that truly without love we are nothing. We are here to help each other, to care for each other, to understand, forgive, and serve one another. We are here to have love for every person born on earth.

In our thoughts and words we create our own weaknesses and our own strengths. Our limitations and joys begin in our hearts. We can always replace negative with positive.

Our limitations and joys begin in our hearts. We can always replace negative with positive.

It often seems easier not to move on; even the muck and mire in which we’re stuck seems less fearful and less challenging than the unknown path ahead.

When you have faith, you move. Complacency actually shows lack of faith. When it’s time to move in a new direction in order to progress, the right people will come to us.

If we understood the power of our thoughts, we would guard them more closely.

each of us has been given the ability to reach God with our prayers. … Whatever form it takes, each prayer is an invitation for God to bring his power into another life. God wants to help us, but he waits for us to seek his help.

The unthankful heart discovers no mercies; but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find, in every hour, some heavenly blessings!

I wondered how long it could last. Maybe someday, years from now.If the pain would decrease to the point where I could bear it. I would be able to look back on those few short months that would always be the best of my life.

I was walking down the street the other day and these construction workers were working on the roof hammering away. One of them told me I was a paranoid lunatic… in morse code.

I live my life like everyday is my last.

What i do in my personal time is about me. if other people dont agree, then it doesn’t matter ‘cos it’s my opinion and that’s what counts at the end of the day.

For my everyday look, I don’t like going anywhere without eye makeup.
