Courtship is a commitment - it's a promise not to play games with another person's heart.

‎True love isn't expressed in passionately whispered words an intimate kiss or a embrace; before two people are married, love is expressed in self-control, patience, even words left unsaid.

When you let God be God you can let humans be humans. When we place God in His rightful place in our lives, we don't struggle so much when human relationships let us down.

Just because something is good doesn't mean we should pursue it right now. We have to remember that the right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing.

The most romantic things a man can do for a woman are the little things that let her know that she's on his mind and in his heart.

When God knows you're ready for the responsibility of commitment, He'll reveal the right person under the right circumstances.

True purity, however, is a direction, a persistent, determined pursuit of righteousness. This direction starts in the heart, and we express it in a lifestyle that flees opportunities for compromise.

But remember, continuing a wrong relationship only increases the pain when it finally does end.

Our hearts lie. Something can 'feel' right and be completely wrong.

I won't stick around to see how much temptation I can take. God is not impressed with my ability to stand up to sin. He is more impressed by the obedience I show when I run from it.

Living to glorify God means doing everything... for Him, His way, to point to His greatness and to reflect His goodness.

I often cried when I got angry; I hated that. Crying just made you look weak, no matter what triggered it.

I thought people wouldn't take me seriously if too much acting was involved in the singing. But now I love the idea of mixing everything together.

You are not superior just because you see the world in an odious light.

History is a living whole. If one organ be removed, it is nothing but a lifeless mass.

Real luxury is understanding quality, and having the time to enjoy it.

In heaven, you get right through. In hell, they put you on hold.

Life is so uncertain: you never know what could happen. One way to deal with that is to keep your pajamas washed.

I'll do what little I can in writing. Only it will be very little. I'm not capable of it; and if I were, you would not go near it at all. For if you did, you would hardly bear to live

Being able to sing all these years has helped me handle life's tragedies.

Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own
