You have to come to your closed doors before you get to your open doors... What if you knew you had to go through 32 closed doors before you got to your open door? Well, then you'd come to closed door number eight and you'd think, 'Great, I got another one out of the way'... Keep moving forward.

Maybe you’ve invested a lot of time, effort, money, emotion, and energy in a relationship you did your best to make it work out. But for some reason, things got off course. And now you feel as though you have been robbed. When we focus on or disappointments, we stop God from ringing fresh new blessing into our lives.

No matter how long it's been, no matter how impossible it looks, if you'll stay in faith, your time is coming.

Don't focus on the adversity focus on God. No matter what you go through, stay in faith, be your best each day and trust that God will use it to position you for greatness.

There are a lot of decisions we pass up on because we think, You know what? That's just going to build - you know, maybe that's going to build me and not build the ministry and what I'm trying to do. So we pass up on a lot of opportunities.

We have to realize that our lives could be gone in a moment. There are no guarantees that we will be here at this time next year. Learn to live each day to the fullest. Don't complain. Don't focus on what's wrong. Be grateful for the opportunity to experience each day.
