God is a businessman. He is not going to do business with someone who shows no sign of potential return. He invests in people who demonstrate an ability to handle what He has given them.

If you think down, you will go down. If you think up, you will go up. You’ll always travel in the direction of your thinking.

Surround yourself with people whose definition of you is not based on your history, but your destiny.

Never make a permanent decision based on a temporary storm.. No matter how raging the billows are today, remind yourself: "This too shall pass!"

God is not preparing the Blessing for YOU, He is preparing YOU for the Blessing

When you begin to realize that your past does not necessarily dictate the outcome of your future, then you can release the hurt. It is impossible to inhale new air until you exhale the old.

Not everyone will be happy when you begin to better yourself. Those who are for you will not just celebrate in your triumphs, but they will also pray with you through your tribulations.

Real value isn’t in what you own, drive, wear or live. The greater value is found in love and life, health and strength, friends and family!

Your words will tell others what you think. Your actions will tell them what you believe.

God has invested entirely too much in you for you to be comfortable in anything less than you were created to be.

Don't allow your past or present condition to control you. It's just a process that you're going through to get you to the next level.

It happened. It was awful. You aren't perfect. That's all there is. Don't confuse your grief with guilt.

It's the greatest thing in the world, natural enthusiasm. You are nothing without it.

My self-esteem had been crushed through years of childhood bullying and serious abuses, which would take me decades to overcome.

It is better to die than to tell a lie

Know the business, learn the business, own something.

Work for immortality if you will: then wait for it.

I think the people who cast films tend to think of me in regard to strong women with integrity and a lot of it has been very good.

Faith is a kind of sixth sense which works in cases which are without the purview of reason.

When we behold the face of God, all memories of pain and suffering will vanish. Our souls shall be totally healed.

My God is not improbable to me. He has no need of a creation story for himself or to be fine-tuned by something else.
