What He Says:

"We get so busy that we don't even notice when the sun sets or when the sun rises anymore."

"Sometimes I'm doing more than I'm listening...and that's why God is teaching me to be still during this time."

"I'm a people-pleaser, and I want to keep the peace at all costs...but we're not meant to please others, we're meant to live a life that pleases God."

"We are each one or two decisions away from being homeless ourselves."

"My prayer is that even those who haven't experienced their own challenging times will still have a desire to care for the poor...my prayer is that we will want to take care of the poor and reach out to them."

"When God has given you a dream, don't give up on it. Don't give up on what God has called you to do.  Just listen to the Holy Spirit and do what he tells you to do."
