“We should constantly be aspiring to reach higher and higher and higher. We should never be comfortable where we are.”

Nobody’s going to force me to do something against my will. What do I owe anybody that I should submit my will to them?

Never underestimate those who you scar.

Let me be patient, let me be kind, make me unselfish, without being blind, though I may suffer, I’ll envy it not and endure what comes cause he is all that I got.

Everything we do should be a result of our gratitude for what God has done for us.

I think everything happens in time. There’s a time for everything. There’s a time to be in a group, and there’s a time to be solo.

Every day is a lesson in focus for me, and not buying into the world’s concept of what you have to be. I really try every day to be individual and not just in my style or my look or my music, but in my approach to life.

I was hopeless, now I’m on Hope Road.

What was freely given to me, I freely give.

Love is an incredible thing but we don’t know love like we should. Unconditional love we don’t know it because if a person stops stimulating us, we stop loving them.

You might win some, but you just lost one.

From the first time someone says, Who do you think you are? we learn how to repress.

Sometimes we all need to take time and give thanks.

Tomorrow, our seeds will grow. All we need is dedication.

I get out, I get out of all your boxes. I get out, you can’t hold me in these chains. I’ll get out. Father free me from this bondage. Knowin’ my condition is the reason I must change

How you gon’ win when you ain’t right within. Uh uh come again.

It’s silly when girls sell their souls because it’s in.

To avenge a wrong done to you, is to rob yourself of the comfort of crying out against the injustice of it.

I think so much of what we learn when we get older is being comfortable in our own skin and learning what looks good, and not being so trend-centric.

I cannot face another moment of inauthenticity. Not one more day. Saying no to the things that make me uncomfortable in my skin.

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

When we are willing to stay even a moment with uncomfortable energy, we gradually learn not to fear it.

God doesn’t owe us an explanation for everything and actually what I’ve found is that explanations don’t comfort. What comforts is the presence of God, not the explanation of God.

I enjoy doing all different types of movies even though I am the most comfortable with comedy.

Faith includes noticing the mess, the emptiness and discomfort, and letting it be there until some light returns.
