When we were growing up our parents somehow made it clear that being famous was good. And I mistakenly thought that if I was famous then everyone would love me.

I'm still going to make mistakes but I don't have any problems with publicly professing my faith now. It just took me a long time to get to the right place in my relationship with Christ.

Well I've never left my faith - but have I made a lot of mistakes? But was I fortunate that I was brought up in that Pentecostal church where I heard about God's love and God's forgiveness.

Trust is not the same as faith. A friend is someone you trust. Putting faith in anyone is a mistake.

Faith is a living daring confidence in God's grace so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.

God didn't make a mistake when He made you. You need to see yourself as God sees you.

You have to risk failure to succeed. The important thing is not to make one single mistake that will jeopardize the future.

Failure is good. It's fertilizer. Everything I've learned about coaching I've learned from making mistakes.

You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it. So go ahead and make mistakes make all you can. Because remember that's where you'll find success - on the far side of failure.

Our failure to properly deal with Germany and Japan early cost the world dearly later on. We dare not make the same mistake with China.
