If you learn how to forgive others for not being strong, then people can learn how to forgive you for your own issues.
Even when things are getting worse instead of better - I believe God!
Greatness is contagious...You'll catch it if you get around it.
Unforgiveness denies the victim the possibility of parole and leaves them stuck in the prison of what was, incarcerating them in their trauma and relinquishing the chance to escape beyond the pain.
The thing that I've most enjoyed is what I'm learning.
I fully intend to preach the word of God to you until there's a difference between how you walk out of here and how you walked in here.

Contentment comes when you find the people, places, and events in life you were created to impact.
It is your passion that empowers you to be able to do that thing you were created to do.
