Dear Lord, I ask that you help me make it through today with patience, understanding, and calmness in my heart. I ask that you replace any darkness in my life with light and my frustrations with joy. I ask these things in Jesus’s name, amen.

There has to be a time when we stop dreaming of things we’d like to accomplish and start going after these dreams. It’s the fear of failure that stops you. The truth is we all need failure to understand there’s nothing that’s just given to us. When you get to the place you want to be you’ll appreciate the failures along the way.

Dear God, I asked that you clear my mind of any negative thoughts so my heart can run free, so I may look at the world with a clearer understanding of your beautiful creation. Cleanse my heart, dear God, so may always look through the wonderful light you shine upon us. In Jesus’s name, amen.

Dear God, I ask that today and every day that follows you wash any anger from my heart. I desperately want to look at the world differently. Please help me understand that this anger is hurting me more than anyone else. Teach me to find love in every situation and then to find peace in my heart for the rest of my life. In Jesus’s name, amen.

A good attitude comes with understanding your failures are part of the overall plan for your success.

If it’s not kindness then it’s not worth it.

It’s not that they mistook your kindness for weakness. It was a test that they failed miserably.

People will bring up your past failure or mistakes as a way to balance the scales, because things happening in their life aren’t quite right. Understand what they’re doing and let them carry that dark looking glass alone.

Some people don’t know how to show their admiration, especially if they know you. They’ll criticize, minimize and insult. Don’t be troubled by these actions, smile and understand their desperately trying to reach that wonderful star you have created.
