I encourage you to be a person who is not afraid of responsibility. In meeting resistance you will build your strength. If you only do what is easy, you will always remain weak.

God hears and He sees, and you are not alone in your struggles. Remain firm and stable, for God has your deliverance planned.

Patience is a fruit that only grows under trials.

Nobody has a perfect life and it's entirely possible that if you want someone else's life they are busy wanting someone else's too–maybe even yours.

God is not obligated to anoint what He does not initiate.

Let's face it: None of us are ever going to get to the place in life where we have no more disappointments. We can't expect to be sheltered from every little thing. Disappointment is a fact of life--one that must be dealt with.

If you can manage to be thankful in every situation, really believing that God is working everything out for your good, you will end up with the victory every single time.
