Quote

So many people talk about themselves: I'm unattractive, my mind's so slow, and I can't do this. And you know what I tell them? God didn't make a mistake when He made you. You need to see yourself as God sees you.

We think when God speaks to us, there's going to be a boom out of Heaven or we're going to get some chill bumps, but I really believe God's talking to us all the time. He's talking to us right in here. I call it our heart, our conscience, but it's the Holy Spirit talking to us.
