On the hard days, let's remember... God will restore us. He will strengthen us. He will make us strong in the midst of our feeling weak. And there’s a perfecting of us that’s happening in the process.
There is purpose even in this. There is hope in the midst of our pain.
It is within my power either to serve God or not to serve him. Serving him, I add to my own good and the good of the whole world. Not serving him, I forfeit my own good and deprive the world of that good, which was in my power to create. — Leo Tolstoy
Dare to believe what God told you. Don’t be moved by what you don’t see, by how long it’s taking, by how bad it looks, by what you don’t have. Don’t let those negative thoughts override what God has spoken to you. Mix in your faith.
Keep praying friend, for that loved one, the lost wages, and the long-awaited dream.
Delayed doesn't mean denied. It just gives us the opportunity to spend more time with the One who has all the answers and our best interest in mind.
Oh friend, the best is yet to come!
One sweet day when there’s no more night, all of us in Christ will be together & even we who did not like each other will love each other and we who said we wouldn’t see each other will greet each other & we will wave our branches & shout with all our might,
Blessed is the King!
Research shows that the internal reward of reaching a goal is more lasting than external incentives. What are some goals that would make you feel good inside, in addition to the external perks?

I know it's hard not to worry and fret ... but we don’t have to figure our present circumstances out. We don’t have to know all the whys and what-ifs. All we have to do is trust.
In quiet humility and without a personal agenda, let's make the decision to let God sort it all out.
