Sometimes a storm in your life is what will blow you to the place you are longing to be.

You haven't been through one thing that God cannot heal you from.

Every single thing you've been through in your life has had a purpose.

Nothing will kill what you've been called to do more than comparing yourself to someone else.

Anyone with the maturity to surrender entirely to God is mature enough for God to use.

Sometimes truth is costly but not nearly as costly as deception.

Differences will always exist, but division doesn't always have to result.

Our victory rests not on faith in our spirituality. Our victory rests on faith in our God.

Forgiveness doesn't make the situation OK, it makes you OK.

Ultimately, our relationship with Christ is the one thing we cannot do without.

We want Christ to hurry and calm the storm. He wants us to find him in the midst of it first.

Stereotypes are fast and easy, but they are lies, and the truth takes its time.

I don’t know why we do it. But sometimes we just swim straight for the net.

Cool superiority as a mask for overflowing insecurity.

You take care of the people you love, but it’s true, too, that you take care of the things you own.

I shouldn't have to be a liar to make someone love me. I shouldn't be so afraid of losing someone that I'll do anything to make them stay.

Too often in my life, love has been defined as "humiliation with occasional roses".

Rejection, though--it could make the loss of someone you weren't even that crazy about feel gut wrenching and world ending.

I guess forgiveness, like happiness, isn’t a final destination. You don’t one day get there and get to stay.
