It’s a lie to think you’re not good enough. It’s a lie to think you’re not worth anything.
Believe me, the loss of hope is far worse than the loss of limbs.
Without trust in the possibilities for your life, where would you be? Where would any of us be? Our hopes for the future give us momentum.
None of us can accomplish our dreams without the help of others. Is it more important for you to feel superior and self-sufficient than to accomplish your dreams within a community of supporters?
…one of the best ways to take the pain out of past experiences is to replace the hurt with gratitude.
Instead of dwelling on that pain within, reach out to someone else’s pain.
We believe that Jesus has made His home in our hearts, and as long as we carry Him there, God’s love will keep our love strong no matter where we are.
You may not have a clue of what lies ahead, but it’s better to act on life than simply let life act on you.
…putting your faith into action is not a passive exercise. You have to actively and willfully take the necessary steps to locate and move along the path God designed for you.
You can believe that you are a good and caring person, but if you don’t treat others with goodness and care, where is the proof?
Humility is an interesting virtue because if you don’t have It, sooner or later it’s given to you.
There are two types of risk in life: the danger of trying and the danger of not trying.
Hope and purpose in this world is living as best as you can and maybe having life that gives back. But simply giving back isn’t purpose; it’s a branch of purpose, but it is not the trunk or root of the tree.
Hope is in the name of God, the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Hope is when you compare your suffering to the infinite, immeasurable love and grace of God.
Often people ask how I manage to be happy despite having no arms and no legs. The quick answer is that I have a choice. I can be angry about not having limbs, or I can be thankful that I have a purpose. I chose gratitude.
Faith is walking by faith, not by what you feel. You are not always going to feel that Jesus loves you or that God is good, but you know He is. It is the up and down of the journey.
The greatest news that I could ever say is that Jesus is Lord and Savior of my life. He is my friend. He is with me wherever I go. I’m so delighted to continue to grow in my relationship to Jesus.
