QUOTES BY Lecrae

If you really wanna be a rebel, read your bible.

When people let youd own, God will pick you up.

Run after God. Be who you're created to be, and you'll run into the people who are doing the same thing, and those are the people that you'll want to be with.

I think we're all wounded, but some of us, when we experience the healing of those wounds, that they scar and scab over.

God sometimes takes us into troubles waters not to drown us, but to cleanse us.

God is not bothered by your persistence. Keep asking.

Freedom in Christ allows you to control the desires that once controlled you.

All men are created to lead, but we need somebody to lead us.

We rushed to Haiti. We Adopt in Asia. We empathize with Africa. But struggle to humanize our struggles here in the states.

Dear Hip Hop, we can't scream 'murder, misogyny, lawlessness' in our music & then turn around and ask for equality & justice.

We find worth in jobs, money, & performance so we can hide how worthless we feel inside. Acknowledge the pain to be healed.
