I love being under submission to my husband. . . I believe in keeping the male ego intact.
I believe when I leave this Earth because I love the Lord, I am going straight to heaven.
People think that if they read something in the newspaper or see it on TV, it has to be true.
I've been very ill. You just have to trust the Lord.
I take Him shopping with me. I say, OK, Jesus, help me find a bargain.
There's times when I just have to quit thinking. . . and the only way I can quit thinking is by shopping.
I don't think God cares what you put in your body or on your body.
I talk to God every single day. And I say, 'God, my life is in your hands, and I trust you with me. '
Religious people today are courts and juries. When it comes down to it, Jesus died on the cross so that we could learn to love others like we love ourselves, not judge them or persecute them.
There's a verse in the Bible says, 'In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. ' And what brings me peace is the scripture.
The Bible says, Judge not lest ye be judged. Our lives are supposed to be hospitals, not courtrooms.
I can trust in Jesus. And this Gospel that we preach does work. So those who are hurting and suffering today, hang in there. The sun will shine again.
Honey, I am going to my grave with my eyelashes and my makeup on.
I always say shopping is cheaper than a psychiatrist.
You don't have to be dowdy to be a Christian.
Live one day at a time, and never be afraid.
