I think we use God's word. I think the principles that you hear Dr. Phil and some of those others talk about many times are right out of the Bible.

Don't waste your energy trying to convince people to understand you. Your time is too valuable to try to prove yourself to people.

I don't have to figure out how God is going to solve my problem. I don't have to understand how He's going to bring it to pass. That's His responsibility. My job is to simply believe that He will.
