Be patient. God is using today's difficulties to strengthen you for tomorrow. He is equipping you. The God who makes things grow will help you bear fruit.

Trust God's love. His perfect love. Don't fear He will discover your past. He already has. Don't fear disappointing Him in the future. He can show you the chapter in which you will. With perfect knowledge of the past and perfect vision of the future, He loves you perfectly in spite of both.

---

The next time you're disappointed, don't panic. Don't give up. Just be patient and let God remind you He's still in control.

---

God loves you simply because He has chosen to do so. He loves you when you don't feel lovely. He loves you when no one else loves you. Others may abandon you, divorce you, and ignore you, but God will love you always. No matter what!

---

God loves you just the way you are, but he refuses to leave you that way.

---

When you recognize God as Creator, you will admire Him. When you recognize His wisdom, you will learn from Him. When you discover His strength, you will rely on Him. But only when He saves you will you worship Him.

---

God never said that the journey would be easy, but He did say that the arrival would be worthwhile.

---

Our Savior kneels down and gazes upon the darkest acts of our lives. But rather than recoil in horror, he reaches out in kindness and says, "I can clean that if you want." And from the basin of his grace, he scoops a palm full of mercy and washes away our sin.

---

Faith is the conviction that God knows more than we do about this life and He will get us through it.

No one can pray and worry at the same time. When we worry, we aren't praying. When we pray, we aren't worrying.
