Growing up is realising there’s no reward for being a good person. Sometimes you do the right thing, treat people well, and still end up disappointed. You’re good because it aligns with your values, not because the universe is keeping score.
The older I get, the lower my tolerance is for B.S.; I no longer feel the need to argue with people or convince them to see things from my perspective. If you say the sky is lime green, I’ll agree and keep it moving. Not because I believe it, but because protecting my peace is more important than winning a debate
People only try to humble you when you’re actually great. If you were average, they’d just ignore you. Their jealousy is just a compliment in disguise.
If you are a good woman, humble and sweet, the devil will come after you through people. He'll lead them to treat you wrong for no reason at all in an attempt to make you hard and rough. He wants to take away that sweet and humble spirit you have. But don't let them do that.
i honestly can’t wrap my head around it. if God put this much order into the smallest parts of creation, what makes you think He would leave you completely on your own?
Some seasons took everything out of me. But somehow, God kept putting strength back in me. That's why my gratitude runs deep. His faithfulness has carried me too far to question His hand now.
