I look at everything. God gave me eyes and I look at women and men and subway excavations and moving pictures and the little flowers of the field. I casually inspect the universe.

The more you manifest a servant’s heart in all you do, the more of an impact you’ll have on people’s lives.

I believe in the sun when it isn’t shining, I believe in love even when I don’t feel it. I believe in God even when He’s silent.
