I'm a survivor of life. I try to give the glory to God and appreciate what's happening to me.
It's always nice when you do something and it's well received as opposed to the other way which God knows happens to everybody. When the good times come around you take a deep breath appreciate it but not take it too seriously.
And that's really what's happening in this country is a violation of the First Commandment. We have become a country entrenched in idolatry and that idolatry is the dependency upon our government. We're supposed to depend upon God for our protection and our provision and for our daily bread not for our government.
I am in love - and my God it is the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already you are wasting your life.
I believe that nothing happens apart from divine determination and decree. We shall never be able to escape from the doctrine of divine predestination - the doctrine that God has foreordained certain people unto eternal life.
I'm blessed and I thank God for every day for everything that happens for me.
If I were to say 'God why me?' about the bad things then I should have said 'God why me?' about the good things that happened in my life.
God lets everything happen for a reason. It's all a learning process and you have to go from one level to another.
As a child of God I am greater than anything that can happen to me.
There was a certain point in my life where I had to decide that I was going to take my future and Nicole's and not wallow in what happened to me because when you do that you just keep repeating what's been happening and at some point you have to make a choice.
Everything that ever happened is still happening. Past present and future keep happening in the eternity which is Here and Now.
I have my flaws and my issues past and present and who knows what will happen in the future. I want people to know I'm vulnerable too and each one of us is.
I really hope that we'll have a sustainable future on this planet I really do. So I probably geek out mostly about learning more about how potentially we can hopefully make that happen hopefully we're not too far lost.
The truth is my idea has been to always stay at Barcelona and see out the rest of my career here. Like I always say one doesn't know what can happen in the future but if it were up to me to decide I would stay at Barcelona for the rest of my career.
Kids feel so strongly about what's going on today and what's happening to the world and that's very inspiring. I feel more hopeful than ever before about the future.
I don't know what the future holds but I know that God holds tomorrow so it is exciting. Even when I have hard things happen He loves me so big so much. I come through it and I grow from it because He has got me.
People talk about doom-laden scenarios happening in the future: they are happening in Africa now. You can see it perfectly clearly. Periodic famines are due to too many people living on land that can't sustain them.
Children have neither a past nor a future. Thus they enjoy the present which seldom happens to us.
I'm a person that carries everything that happened to me in my past with me into the future. I refuse to let it make me bitter. I still completely believe in love and I remain open to anything that will happen to me.
I can look at the future with anticipation. And it's comforting to know that someday as Christians we'll be able to look back and have a little more clarity on why certain things in life happened.
My goal is more to be remembered. They'll remember this thing and like it in the future. The trick is to stay remembered long enough for that to happen.
The future enters into us in order to transform itself in us long before it happens.
We cannot turn the clock back nor can we undo the harm caused but we have the power to determine the future and to ensure that what happened never happens again.
The worst thing that can happen in a democracy - as well as in an individual's life - is to become cynical about the future and lose hope.
