Not Every Woman Was Intended To Juggle A Career As Well As All Of The Other Duties Of Being A Wife, Mother, Citizen, And Daughter. Single Women Should Not Be Made To Feel They Are Missing Somenthing Because They Are Not Married. Married Women Should Not Be Made To Feel They Must Have A Career To Be Complete. We Must Have The Freedom To Be Our Individual Selves.

Keep Your Mind Going In The Right Direction, And Your Life Will Catch Up With It.

Right Direction

Love Gives Life Purpose And Meaning.

Wow! You Might Actually Have To Act Like A Christian Sometimes!

If We Didn't Struggle Through Some Things, We Would Never Develop The Strength And Stamina We Need To Survive In This World.

Harboring Unforgiveness Is Like Drinking Poison And Hoping Your Enemy Will Die.

Humble People Ask For Help.

Instead Of Being Critical Of People In Authority Over You And Envious Of Their Position, Be Happy You're Not Responsible For Everything They Have To Do. Instead Of Piling On Complaints, Thank Them For What They Do. Overwhelm Them With Encouragement And Appreciation!

Christianity Is About The Heart, And The Bible Says That We Cannot Get To Heaven On Our Own Good Works. No Matter How Good We Are, We Cannot Be Good Enough, Because God Is Perfect, And We're Always Going To Be Less Than Perfect.

When We Make A True Commitment To Walk In Love, It Usually Causes A Huge Shift In Our Lifestyle. Many Of Our Ways - Our Thoughts, Our Conversation, Our Habits - Have To Change.

Every Day That Goes By Puts Us Closer To The Day When Christ Will Return.

We Often Think More Highly Of Ourselves Than We Ought To, And It's Easy To Judge Others And Be Critical Of Their Weaknesses And Shortcomings. But This Self-righteous Attitude Is A Sin That We Can Be Blinded To Because We're So Focused On What The Other Person Did Wrong. The Reality Is This Attitude Is Worse Than The Wrong Behavior We're Judging.

When We Face Our Fears, We Can Find Our Freedom.

In My Relationship With God, I've Learned That If I Follow A 'formula' For How I Spend My Time With Him, Then I'm Just Accomplishing A Checklist Of Things I Feel Obligated To Do To Please Him. This Makes My Spiritual Life More About Doing What I Need To Do To Fulfill An Obligation Than Something Meaningful.

Loving People Is The Highest Level Of Spiritual Warfare That We Could Ever Do

Don't Be Afraid Of Change, Because It Is Leading You To A New Beginning.

When I Read The Bible, I See That We Should Have Victory In Our Life And Be Overcomers, And I Can't Even Control My Temper. I'm Impatient. I'm Hard To Get Along With. I'm Selfish And Self-centered, And I Don't Seem To Have Any Control Over It.

I'm Jealous. I'm Mad. I Feel Bad. But One Day, I Woke Up And I Thought, You Know What? This Is Wearing Me Out. And I'm Not Getting Anywhere. So, I Decided That Even Though I Did Not Have A Good Beginning, I Made A Decision That I Was Going To Let Go Of What Lies Behind And I Was Going To Have A Great Finish.

Your Emotions Are Very Unstable And Should Never Be The Foundation For Direction In Your Life.

We All Get Weary Sometimes, And We Tend To Think That Life Is What Makes Us Weary.

Grace Keeps Us From Worrying Because Worry Deals With The Past, While Grace Deals With The Present And Future.

If You Go Plant One Tomato Seed, You Don't Get Back One Tomato; You Get A Vine Of Tomatoes.

I Want To Dedicate The Rest Of My Life To Spreading The Love Of Christ. Because God Has Done So Much For Me And Has Given Me This Platform To Speak Into Millions Of Lives, I Feel It Is My Duty...

Self Pity Is The Most Miserable Party To Go To, Because, In Case You Haven't Noticed, You're The Only One Who Is There.

Over The Years I've Learned How To Lock Myself Up In A Prison Of Hope, Knowing That God Has Nothing But His Best Planned For Me. He Promised Me Things Concerning My Ministry And My Life.

We Worship God With Our Entire Life - With Every Decision We Make And Everything We Do

Decisions We Make

Deadly Emotions, Buried Alive, Never Die.

Satan Wants Us To Constantly Focus On Everything That Is Wrong With Us And Look At How Far We Still Have To Go. But God Desires For Us To Rejoice In How Far We Have Already Come.
