Difficulties come into our lives to develop us. Every storm is a school. Every trial is a teacher. Every experience is an education.
Nicky Gumbel
People may hurt you but God will heal you. People may humiliate you but God will honour you. People may judge you but God will justify you.
Nicky Gumbel
There are many things that were harder to discuss back in the 80's and early 90's than they are now, and this also works the opposite way for other things.
Nicky Gumbel
Just because you are struggling does NOT mean you are failing. Every great success requires some kind of struggle to get there.
Nicky Gumbel
Don't be afraid of pressure. Pressure is what transforms a lump of coal into a diamond.
Nicky Gumbel
