That either you allow God to
control your attitude,
control your attitude,
or it controls you.
I Believe...
That it's taking me a long time to become
the person I want to be.
But, I'm still breathing, so God's not done with me yet.
I Believe...
That sometimes the people you expect
to kick you when you're down,
will be the ones to put out their hands
and help you get back up.
I Believe...
That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences we've had,
and what we've learned from them...
and less to do with how many
birthdays we've celebrated.

I Believe...
That you can never fall so far
that you are beyond the reach of God.

God's love covers a multitude of sins.

you have to go through it to heal.

God will give us the strength to swim.

That when we feel the loneliest,
God is still right beside us.
I Believe...
That though others may fail us,
God's love never ends.
I Believe...
That all things happen for a reason,
though we may never know their purpose.
I Believe...
That miracles happen every day.
I Believe...
That when we open our broken hearts to God,
His healing love rushes in.
I Believe...
That when we give our lives to the Lord,
we breathe for the very first time.
I Believe...

is always hopeful, and endures through
every circumstance." (1 Corinthians 13:7)

That we may not choose our circumstances,
But we can choose our response.
