When you come to a dark valley, a difficult season or a sickness, don't worry about it, God will give you the grace and strength you need.

Don't waste your energy trying to convince people to understand you. Your time is too valuable to try to prove yourself to people.

I don't have to figure out how God is going to solve my problem. I don't have to understand how He's going to bring it to pass. That's His responsibility. My job is to simply believe that He will.

Difficult times don't come your way just so you can survive them; God uses these times in your life to form and refine you.

Never put a question mark where God has put a period. When something is over and done, let it go and move on to the next chapter of your life.

Choosing to be positive and having a grateful attitude is going to determine how you're going to live your life.

The more you talk about negative things in your life, the more you call them in. Speak victory not defeat.

Learn to trust His timing. Don't get in a hurry; don't grow impatient; don't try to force doors open. Don't try to make things happen in your own strength. Let God do it His way.

There are people in your path just so you can be a blessing to them. Anytime you do good for others, you are sowing a seed for God to be good to you.

You have to accept the fact that some people are never going to be for you. Treat them with respect, but you don’t need their approval to fulfill your destiny.

Wake up every morning with a thankful attitude. Expect something good to happen in your life today.

To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.

The hero, it might be said, is called into being when perception of a need an the recognition of responsibility toward it are backed up by the will to act.

I still will sit down at the piano and play when I am wrestling with something emotionally or just want to move into the musical world.

The past and present are only our means; the future is always our end. Thus we never really live, but only hope to live.

Never burn your bridges till you come to them.

There is no substitute for hardwork. Always be humble and hungry.

One cannot really be a Catholic and grown up.

The world's becoming a museum of socialist failures.

There is nothing so debilitating to a naturally weak sense of humor as selling tickets behind a grating.

You live in my heart where no one sees you but I do. That vision becomes this art.
