Your Past Does Not Determine Who You

So Many People Say, "i Just Don't Have A Good Job, Or My Marriage Is Not Where It's Supposed To Be." Really It's Excuse After Excuse To Not Be Happy. To Me It's A Waste. I'm Going To Look At What's Right And Not What's Wrong In My Life. I'm Alive, I'm Healthy, And You Know, A Good Thing To Remember Is Somebody's Got It A Lot Worse Than We Do.

You Have To Turn It Around And Say God Still Has A Great Plan For My Life. I May Not Understand Things That Happen, But Faith Is All About Trusting When You Don't Understand It.

Any Of Us Can Be Happy And Have A Good Attitude When Everything Is Going Our Way. But I Believe It's The Real Test Of Your Character And Of Your Faith To Say, 'things Are Not Going Our Way, But I'm Still Being Good To People; I'm Still Attending Church; I Still Have A Good Attitude.'

That's What I Feel Like I'm Called To Do - To Plant A Seed Of Hope In People's Hearts.

God Never Promised That We Wouldn’t Have Challenges. In Fact, He Said Just The Opposite. His Word Says, ‘be Truly Glad!...these Trials Are Only To Test Your Faith, To See Whether Or Not It Is Strong And Pure…’ So If Your Faith Remains Strong After Being Tried In The Test Tube Of Fiery Trials, It Will Bring You Much Praise And Glory And Honor On The Day Of His Return.
