“Great love isn’t two people finding the perfect match in one another. Great love is two people making the choice to be a match.”

Don’t let the hurt of today blind you to the hope of tomorrow. Disappointment ushers in a new appointment.

Truth is the only healthy place from which to speak. Assumption is the birthplace of godless chatter.

Satan has no power over us except what we allow. Moment by moment, decision by decision, step by step – will we operate in God’s all powerful Truth or allow Satan to entangle us in his lies?

I was made for more than being stuck in a vicious cycle of defeat. I am not made to be a victim of my poor choices. I was made to be a victorious child of God.

Praying helps me see perspectives otherwise beyond me.

I so desperately want my words to be indicative of how deeply and completely I love my people.

No person, possession, profession, or position ever fills the cup of a wounded, empty heart. It’s an emptiness only God can fill.

There is power in simply speaking the name Jesus.

At the end of the day, honoring God leads to good things. Anything else leads to confusion, emotional exhaustion and a lack of good things.

My imperfections will never override God’s promises. God’s promises are not dependent on my ability to always choose well, but rather on His ability to use well.

Wise women tuck Godly wisdom into the words they speak and even more into the words they choose not to speak.

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

Chase God’s heart today. Christianity has got to be more than a label, a lingo, and a lifestyle.

Yes, they are carnal, both of them, love and death, and therein lies their terror and their great magic!

Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so.

As long as there are human rights to be defended; as long as there are great interests to be guarded; as long as the welfare of nations is a matter for discussion, so long will public speaking have its place.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

I have a lot of great distractions outside of acting.
