Quote by Joel Osteen
“There’s something God has given you, and that slingshot may seem ordinary, but when God breathes on it, you’ll defeat a giant twice your size, you’ll be promoted beyond your talent, you’ll go places where you didn’t have the experience. You weren’t next in line, but suddenly the door opened, suddenly the Compaq Center is yours, suddenly people are celebrating you.”
