“Fear’s the only obstacle that gets in the way of doing what we love. Fear holds us back from living the lives we’re made to live.”

You deal. You survive. You grow up and you build a career. And you remember these big/little hardships. They make you human.

Even the hard times are part of your life story. If you acknowledge them and move past them, they eventually add up to the experience that makes you wise.

There’s no better feeling than making somebody smile.

There’s so much negativity in the world and what you only need to hear is all the love.

I understand… the pressure is definitely hard, but I think just keeping your head on your shoulders is easier than it looks. I think if you know who you are, then I think you’ll be fine for the rest of the way.

Beauty is the enemy . We try to conquer not feeling beautiful all our lives. It’s a battle that can’t be won. There’s no definition of beauty. The only way to achieve beauty is to feel it from inside without breaking down into individual physical attributes.

Nobody notices your sorrow, your pain, but everyone notices your mistakes.

GOD gave you this life because HE knew you could handle it.

I don’t think you can be too ashamed of anything as long as you were being yourself. I think why people feel, um, so entitled over me is that they’ve watched me grow up. But that’s a blessing and a curse.

You can’t live a positive life with a negative mind.

The best part of my carreer is getting to meet so many different people, because I learn so much from everyone.

Everyone is constantly transitioning.

All my friends are super normal.

Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect.

Maybe it’s your time to lift off and fly You won’t know if you never try.

You can’t stop people from talking about you, but you can stop giving them something to talk about.

All my life, I’ve been frightened at the moment I sit down to write.

We fear men so much, because we fear God so little. One fear cures another. When man’s terror scares you, turn your thoughts to the wrath of God.

Communicating our questions, hopes, and fears in prayer makes them-even to ourselves-more open and clear.

Any fear associated with giving to God’s kingdom is irrational. It’s on par with a farmer who, out of fear of losing his seed, refuses to plant his fields.

I have a big fear of change, or negative change, anyway. I’m basically the same person I was when I won ‘Idol,’ or when I was 10.

If you don’t do what Fear says…you’ll go ahead and speak up, you’ll sign up, you’ll buy, you’ll sell, you’ll jump.

Imagination is the hotbed where this sin is too often hatched. Guard your thoughts, and there will be little fear about your actions.

The human emotional system can be broken down into roughly two elements: fear and love. Love is of the soul. Fear is of the personality.
