Faith turns mountains into pebbles. Fear turns pebbles into mountains.

I am really much more afraid of those people who have so great a fear of the devil, than I am of the devil himself.

Plant seeds of expectation in your mind; cultivate thoughts that anticipate achievement. Believe in yourself as being capable of overcoming all obstacles and weaknesses.

If you have been long defeated by a difficulty, it is probably because you have told yourself for weeks, months, and even for years that there is nothing you can do about it. But when you emphasize and reemphasize a positive attitude, you will finally convince your own consciousness that you can do something about difficulties.

If you have faith, even if it's as little as a mustard seed, you can move mountains.

When you accept the fact that your true identity includes being an overcomer, you will never settle for less than a miracle.

God does not send the problem, the illness, the accident, the hurricane, and God does not take them away when we find the right words and rituals with which to beseech Him. Rather, God sends us strength and determination of which we did not believe ourselves capable, so that we can deal with, or live with, problems that no one can make go away.

If God is testing us, He must know by now that many of us fail the test. If He is only giving us burdens we can bear, I have seen Him miscalculate far too often.

You will never be enough, Ford. When you are weak, because of Him, you are strong.

God's power can bring down any giant, but we have to be willing to get in the game.

Your tests don't have to define you. Your compatibility doesn't have to be a ceiling over which your relationship can never rise. Your past hurts don't have to constitute the first steps in a journey toward divorce court. We worship, serve, and are empowered by a supernatural God who can lift us above our scientific limitations and create something special out of something very ordinary. These tests don't account for the power of a magnificent obsession.

God never promises to remove us from our struggles. He does promise, however, to change the way we look at them.
