Trials are the soil in which faith flourishes.

Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.

The hardest lesson of my life has come to me late. It is that a nation can win freedom without its people becoming free.

A man of purpose focuses on his destination, not his situation. Don't let your situation mislead you!

Your hands may be full of money and your brain full of information but if your heart is empty, your life is very empty.

If you have not tasted poverty, you will not be able to manage blessing when it comes. If you have not tasted humiliation, you will not be able to manage honour when it comes.

As a Christian, when your trial is getting hotter, you are getting closer to your breakthrough! Keep pressing!

Every day, God has something to say to you. Even when He seems to be quiet, God is still saying something.

I have never seen where hatred overcomes love. When you love, you overcome. Love is the most powerful weapon.

In the university of God, however brilliant you may be, you will not be given double promotion. You must take every course, because each course serves a purpose.

When discouragement comes, don't stop. Dig deep and fight it through!

Sometimes you have to take a shot in the dark to discover the light.

Maybe there is another who sees life not as a flickering candle but as a torch that can illuminate an undiscovered world.

Some people seem to understand this - that life and change take time - but I am not one of those people.

I used to be homophobic, but as I got older, I realized that wasn't the way to do things. I don't discriminate against anybody for their sexual preference, for their skin color... that's immature.

Science not only hasn't found God, it isn't even looking for him.

The person portrayed and the portrait are two entirely different things.

You can shear a sheep many times, but skin him only once.

If you want to be successful, you must respect one rule. Never lie to yourself.

You seek a false comfort when you demand that I define myself for you with words. Words do not contain or define any person. A heart can, if it is willing.

No one I know actually reads what I write, so thank heavens for you strangers.
