“The Bible is a record of sin, deceit, immorality of every kind, disobedience, hypocrisy and God’s amazing grace and love. The heroes we admire were people just like us. They failed miserably at times, they sinned regularly, and yet they found love, acceptance, forgiveness and mercy to be the free gifts of God. His love drew them into intimate relationship with Him, empowered them to do great things, and taught them to enjoy the life that He has provided.”

She knows that every new unknown is a chance to learn more about herself and unleash her abilities.”

“I wasted some years trying to be like other people I knew, but I found that God won’t help us be anyone other than ourselves.
