There is so much temptation to hold on to my career even more now. To try to micromanage and dictate every little aspect. But that's not how I want to do things anymore. I'm thinking about how can I trust God more. How can I surrender more? How can I bring him more glory? It's a fight. But it's one I'm going to keep fighting.

There are a lot of times that we feel like our hands are tied - 'I have no control over if I'm going to lose my job.' 'I have no control over if I'm going to be able to pay my bills.' You've got to realize that that's where your trust comes in. You have to trust God, and keep your hope, because your hope is what produces your faith.

I have a strong belief that there is a god or a higher power. I think that if you have a strong belief in that, then you won't feel alone in life and you will feel you can get through anything.

I have gone through a period of seeking to understand what or how strong or what are the connections I have to God.

You work on things and you have such faith in them while you're making them that everything feels special - in a way.

Basically, there are two paths you can walk: faith or fear. It's impossible to simultaneously trust God and not trust God.

I've always believed in God. I also think that's the sort of thing that either comes as part of the equipment, the capacity to believe, or at some point in your life, when you're in a position where you actually need help from a power greater than yourself, you simply make an agreement.

I don't think you ever really know what all you're doing, so you have to act on faith.

Sometimes all you need is just for somebody to believe in you in order to be able to accomplish maybe what you never thought you could.
