Life is learning to take God's hand.....and hold on.

This thing that troubles you is only one small part of your life. Don't allow it to be all-consuming when there's so much more to embrace.

Just resign yourself to the fact that you're going to be miserable so you can finally be happy. (It's a sound theory if you think about it hard enough.)

If you avoid all of life's abrasions you will never be polished enough to shine.

I am grateful for the rare opportunities to look at my circumstances from a higher perspective, one detached from the dim outlook I normally insist on seeing. These periodic glimpses show me life's grandeur.

Between here and there is a journey illuminated by the rising and setting of a radiant sun. Don't miss its splendor in your all-fired hurry to cross the finish line.

One of the most effective things you will ever do in life, whether you care to or not, is set an example.
