Your job is not to judge. Your job is not to figure out if someone deserves something. Your job is to lift the fallen, to restore the broken, and to heal the hurting.

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.

Life moves very fast. It rushes from Heaven to Hell in a matter of seconds.

Just because I don't have a college degree doesn't mean I am not smart!

[joking about the length of the Rolling Stones' career] You have the sun, you have the moon, you have the air that you breathe - and you have the Rolling Stones!

From all wild beasts, a child is the most difficult to handle.

The Democratic Party has become the party of Bernie Sanders, I mean they are the progressives. That's who control.

We exhaust ourselves more from the tension and the consequences of internal disharmony than from hard, unremitting work.
