“Be that force of good that pushes people in a positive direction, not one that leads them to the darkness. Becoming a Christian seemed overwhelming at first. View it as life’s greatest opportunity. Focus on what is laid upon your heart and take things one step at a time. Once you’ve accepted God’s grace, the rest will come easily and in due time.”

“An early lesson for me was that, no matter how good you are (or think you are) at something, there is someone out there who is better. Surrounding yourself with those people raises the bar.
