“If you are a woman who honors God right where you are, you are in ministry.”

Trying to fix another person will only add to my anxiety. Letting Jesus work on me is where real progress can happen.

Instead of wishing things would change, I’m asking God for His strength to make a change.

We need to make peace with who we are so insecurities don’t become a distraction to how we live. Just because I sometimes feel insecure doesn’t mean I have to be insecure.

We need to make sure our activities and our attitudes line up with what pleases God first and foremost. Wherever we focus our attention the most will become the driving force in our lives.

Just because something is hard doesn’t mean it’s impossible.

We want big directional signs from God. God just wants us to pay attention.

Trusting God’s plan is the only secret I know in the gentle art of not freaking out.

Whatever has you afraid, angry, intimidated or frustrated tonight – take it to our all-powerful and all-capable God. He has the answer.

Remember, conflict doesn’t always mean we have to fight against something and tear it apart. Conflict can also mean we’re fighting for something to make it even better and stronger than it’s ever been.

I want to honor Jesus with the things I say and the things I choose not to say. Lord, help us all be so careful with sharing opinions as if they are truth.

God never intended for us to rely on others for our sense of well being. Only He is equipped to provide that.

We live in a broken world full of broken people. But isn’t it comforting to know God isn’t ever broken? He isn’t ever caught off guard, taken by surprise, or shocked by what happens next.

God is using all of your experiences, both good and bad, to develop your character to match your calling.

Do not confuse the command to love with the disease to please.

Don’t put the whole of your identity into the smallness of a situation.

Dear Lord, forgive me for all of the times I’ve compared myself to others. I know that You have hand-picked all of my qualities. Help me to see these things as beautiful reminders of Your great love in creating me as Your daughter. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Thank God for such women, who make no apologies for their oceanic depth and riptides of emotion.

For business, our internet love affair was a gift from the gods.

I asked Him to give me the prayers He wants me to pray and to give or withhold anything according to his plan for me. Nothing is too big to ask of Him, not even an ocean lot. It is God’s business to decide if it is good for me. It is my business to obey Him.

Wealth comes from hard work but not because of hard work. Wealth comes because of God. Everything is His.

God will not protect you from anything that will make you more like Jesus.

The will of God is not something you add to your life. It’s a course you choose. You either line yourself up with the Son of God, or you capitulate to the principle which governs the rest of the world.

God deliver me from people who are so spiritual that they want to turn everything into perfect contemplation, come what may.

God’s Law of Cause and Effect: Your rewards in life will always be equal to the amount and quality of service rendered, in the long run.
