Most of us have hoped and prayed for something to happen a certain way, but it didn't. And when this happened, we had a choice to make: to react with offense toward God or to trust Him anyway.

You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.

Every day is a gift from God. Learn to focus on the Giver and enjoy the gift!

Being negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult. You may be given a cactus, but you don't have to sit on it.

Encourage everyone you meet with a smile or compliment. Make them feel better when you leave their presence and they will always be glad to see you coming.

We suffer much agony because we try to get from people what only God can give us, which is a sense of worth and value. Look to God for what you need, not to people.

Love can melt the hardest heart, heal the wounds of the broken heart and quiet the fears of the anxious heart.

I make mistakes every day. I'm not perfect in my behavior, but I want to be and that's what God is after, a heart that wants to be.

Don't be afraid to step out, have dreams, have visions, have hopes and always, always, always believe in miracles.

A positive attitude gives you power over your circumstances instead of your circumstances having power over you.

When we are truly confident and secure, the opinions of others cannot control us.

Failing to forgive yourself for certain wrongs you committed in the past can create self-dislike.

When you’re lost there’s nowhere to go but forward. One step at a time – and the way will show itself.

Each day I will accomplish one thing on my to do list.

I cannot sit and think; books think for me.

I think for me with theater, I need to take a break and then fall in love with it again. And then go do it again.

So to be standing here, this was really, truly, honestly never part of anything we even imagined in our wildest dreams.

I can rap in a London accent, make weird faces, wear spandex, wigs, and black lipstick. I can be more creative than the average male rapper.

The rule should be to minimize the need for people to get together to accomplish anything.

Perfume is like a parenthesis, a moment of freedom, peace, love and sensuality in between the disturbances of modern living.

Nature is the time-vesture of God that reveals Him to the wise, and hides him from the foolish.
