The truth is God created us to have relationship with us. He wants to love us and take care of us, and He wants us to love Him. That's where our walk with Christ has to start.

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.

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.

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

And what new life can emerge from a book. Any book, maybe.

Pray without ceasing, say all you can to God and lay all your difficulties before him. He’ll take away your tears and make a way where there seems to be none. Wake up and do it!

I invented adventures for myself and made up a life, so as at least to live in some way.

Sometimes the most influential thing we can do is listen.

The cowardly dog barks more violently than it bites.

Germany must either be a world power or there will be no Germany

There are no lessons so useful as those learned in the school of affliction.

You are richer for doing things.
